As an experienced real estate professional, it's my job to know which features that parents should factor into their house hunt, but often miss.
Think hard about the local community. The last thing you want is to buy a 3-BR duplex, only to learn later that there's a sex offender living next door. Play it safe and check the National Sex Offender Public Website, which allows you to pinpoint the locale of any sex offenders in a particular section in 22304 in Alexandria.
All parents looking at a property like 4434 Vermont Ave know the importance of having a yard, but unless you plan to go outside every time the kids go outside, you'll also want to check how easy it is to see that yard is from indoors. A big backyard is nice, but for most parents it's so much nicer if it's easy to baby-sit young ones.
When you learn more about a duplex, check to see if this kitchen windows are situated so you can prepare or clean-up after a meal while the little ones play baseball on the lawn? Or if you work from your home office, does your desk have a clear view of your kids' swing-set or sport zone?
