DC Real Estate Trends, Presidential Elections & Correlations?

Real Estate'd By Gretchen Koitz

It’s inevitable...Every four years, as the Presidential election approaches (or sometimes, even months in advance), we start hearing from clients in our Washington, DC area marketplace.  They want to know how the election will impact the local housing market -- especially if they perceive that there is going to be a change in Administrations**. Many ask this question because they are thinking they can “time” sales of their homes to match what they perceive to be an increase in of buyers brought on by the election. It's a great question - one in the not too distant past, was one that deserved more market research.

Hostoric Georgetown Homes

DC Metro Real Estate Post Election Trends In Today's Market  

Today, however the answer is pretty simple: The election (even if it results in the change of Administrations**) does not have much of an impact on our housing market.  As Kevin says, there's a small ripple in the luxury market but no where else do there seem to be breadcrumbs of evidence. The reason is that most members of Congress no longer relocate their families to the Washington DC. It has become too expensive to maintain two residences. Most Congress people and Senators travel back to their homes practically every weekend. Some rent apartments close to the Capital, while others have been known to sleep in a cot in their offices.

Presidential Election = Housing Trends Correlation

It was not uncommon, in the “good old days” for all 435 Member of Congress and all 100 Senators to own DC area homes...this is just no longer true. ...

Four of Washington DC's Finest Luxury Neighborhoods

Premier Washington DC Luxury Real Estate

Washington DC is home to many extraordinary neighborhoods. But when it comes to living in luxury in the DC area, there are four neighborhoods which always seem to be at or near the top of everyone's lists: Woodley Park, Cleveland Park, Georgetown and Kalorama. Not only are the homes, grand townhomes and coops in these neighborhoods filled with wonderful amenities and sometimes historic architectural details, but their owners enjoy easy access to a number of fine restaurants and shopping opportunities as well as to some of the country's most significant landmarks. (picture below:Georgetown, DC townhomes)
Georgetown, DC

1. Woodley Park

Straddling Connecticut Avenue, which is one of DC's main thoroughfares, Woodley Park is one of the most established and popular residential areas in the capital city. This unique community, which features a number of historic homes, can also offer a surprising level of solitude, considering that it is only minutes away from several active retail and entertainment districts. This peace and quiet is made possible partially by the existence of the 117-year-old National Zoo, which features conservation land covering more than 163 treed acres,and is located to the east of the neighborhood.

2. Cleveland Park

Named in honor of Grover Cleveland, the Cleveland Park neighborhood is an attractive residential area that is still brimming with New England charm. In fact, a number of 19th and 20th century homes, embassies and mansions can still be found throughout...
