1011 Otis Place NW
1011 Otis Place NW

This renovated Park View rowhome comes with a lower unit already renting for $2,575 a month: 1011 Otis Pl NW

  • Four-level 2022 renovation
  • Income unit renting $2,575/month
  • Floating wrought-iron staircase
  • Lower suite with private entrance + kitchen
  • Park View/Petworth corridor

Other Notable Fresh Listings:

  • The Most Expensive Home of the Week is a 7BR/7 full + 2 half-bath Craftsman-style detached estate in Phillips Park (Berkley), with an elevator to all four levels, an indoor lap pool, and a main deck cantilevered into the tree canopy beside Glover Archbold Park—all for $7.2M.
  • A “newly renovated home in Woodridge that offers the perfect blend of space, functionality, and modern comfort,” with two balconies and an “8,000 square foot yard” that’s “perfect for hosting summer cookouts.”
  • “Genuine whimsy infuses this welcoming, 2-unit Shaw row home,” which “sweetens the deal with a fully separate lower-level unit, ready to serve as an elaborate guest suite or income-generating offering with proven Airbnb results.”
  • Your REO/Bank-Owned Property of the Week is a “large Mixed Use brick federal” that’s “located along the H Street NE with vibrant mix of retail and housing” and “prime for major rehabilitation into either commercial or residential by a seasoned investor.”


We’re taught to show up. To be strong. To handle it. But what happens when “handling it” means you’re falling apart at 2 AM? What happens when the pressure to be okay becomes the thing that’s not okay?

This is what we’re not talking about enough:

  • The 18-year-old scrolling Instagram and feeling like their life doesn’t measure up
  • The 65-year-old who lost their routine and feels invisible
  • The person who cries in their car before work
  • The friend who seems fine but isn’t sleeping
  • You, right now, reading this and wondering if it’s normal to feel this way

It is. And you’re not broken for feeling it.

Mental health isn’t about being “sick” or “crazy.” It’s about being human. It’s about the weight we carry—from grief, stress, loneliness, uncertainty, change. It’s about those days when getting out of bed feels impossible. And it’s about knowing that these feelings don’t have to be forever.

Here’s what we want you to know:

  • Your feelings are valid. You don’t need anyone’s permission to struggle or to seek help.
  • Help is accessible. Whether it’s talking to someone you trust, calling a lifeline, or seeing a therapist—resources exist. And they’re easier to reach than you think.
  • You’re not the only one. Millions of people in DC and beyond are navigating this. The shame? That’s the stigma talking. Not the truth.
  • Small steps count. One conversation. One call. One moment where you choose yourself. That’s everything.

If you’re struggling, reach out:

  • 988 Lifeline: Call or text 988 (24/7)
  • Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741
  • Find local DC support: [link to resources]

Your story matters. Your struggles are real. And your recovery is possible.

Mental health struggles don’t come with a schedule or a warning. Whether you’re overwhelmed by work stress, dealing with anxiety after scrolling social media, feeling isolated, or just having a hard time—you’re not alone. And asking for help isn’t weakness. It’s courage.

Here’s the thing about mental health in DC:

Too many of us are suffering in silence. Young adults are navigating social comparison anxiety. Seniors are dealing with isolation. All of us are carrying weight we don’t always show.

What you need to know:

  • You don’t have to figure this out alone. The 988 Lifeline is available 24/7—call, text, or chat anytime. No judgment. No pressure.
  • Small habits change everything. A 15-minute walk. Putting your phone down for an hour. Talking to someone you trust. These aren’t luxuries—they’re survival skills.
  • The myths are wrong. Therapy isn’t just for “sick” people. Mental health isn’t a weakness. Your feelings are valid. You deserve support.
  • Your community is here. Local DC mental health resources, support groups, and counselors are ready to help. Free screenings. Affordable care. People who get it.

This week, we’re challenging DC to #BeMindful. Share what helps you—a walk, a conversation, a moment of silence. Break the stigma by being real about your mental health.

If you’re struggling:

  • 988 Lifeline: Call or text 988
  • Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741

Your mental health is as important as your physical health. You deserve to feel okay. And you don’t have to do it alone.
