Sweet Swaps

We all know how great our location is -- obviously -- that's why we moved here, right? Well over the next few months, our city, our neighborhood and our location are going to be the most sought after properties on the planet. Why?


HOLIDAYS: People like to come to DC for the holidays. Check out this vacation swap deal I found on Craig's List:

Your dC apartment for our 3 bedroom house on the Oregon Coast

We will be in DC for 6 nights, from December 26 through New Year's Eve. We are looking for an apartment near the Metro. We will trade our 3 bedroom vacation home on the Oregon Coast for a week of your choosing.....anytime.

If you will be gone between Christmas and New Year's Eve, we want to hear from you! The house is large and comfortable, with two full baths. Only two blocks from a quiet, secluded beach, it has everything you and your family or friends need for a peaceful vacation on one of the cleanest, most well-preserved beaches in North America. We are a professional couple (teacher and librarian), non-smokers, who are neat and respectful of other people's property.
