Wondering about Deanwood:

“I’m buying in DC and have seen a lot of cute homes listed in Deanwood, near the Minnesota Avenue train. I know it’s a “dangerous” area and kind of a commercial desert, but I was wondering if anyone knew of real invesment that is happening in the area in the next 2-4 years. I am seriously considering buying there because the prices are right, but I’m concerned about the lack of amenities. I know no one can predict the future, but I guess I’m just looking for some signs. Thanks.”

Ed. Note: From DC.gov:

“A new $67 million mixed use project is being developed at the intersection of Minnesota Avenue and Benning Road NE in Ward 7 next to the Minnesota Avenue Metro station. It will offer 346 affordable residential rental units available at 60% area median income, 30 market rate residential rental units, 20,000 square feet of retail space that includes a 5,000 square foot restaurant and an allocation of 4,000 square feet for local and small businesses and 255 parking spaces.

A partnership of Donatelli Development and Blue Skye Construction was awarded development rights at Minnesota-Benning. The team anticipates a construction start in the summer of 2012 with a winter 2014 expected delivery date.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
