Hey Bashir, I've watched more than a dozen of your videos, and one thing I've concluded: you need to seriously change your definition of a "huge" walk-in closet.
If it's not at least 230 sq ft, you can't call it huge. But that's my opinion. 😊
@@mizzmolly7649 i guess huge is relative. For a DC home, it would be considered huge because closets in DC homes tend to be on the smaller side. If this home was in Maryland or Virginia, different story 🤷🏽♂️
Wow! It would have been nice to mention Bennett Career Institute that also located in the area. A BLACK FAMILY OWNED business been there since 1996 and still there.
That 3rd house has me thinking it’s time to ask for a raise coz what ??? 😮😮💨… Backyard is EVERYTHING
@@emmalupupa4262 ikr! That yard was out of this world 🔥
Nice presentation of Brookland. I was familiar with the area in the 70's early 80's and much has changed for the better IMOP.
Yup Brookland has seen a lot of change especially in the last decade
Nice video of the Brookland area. I was born and raised there and my mom still lives in her home there. Awesome memories.
I’ve been living in Brookland for over three decades and I like the fact that a lot of the areas you mentioned are within walking distance to me.
@@almurry8943 Brookland is a great neighborhood. How have you liked living there over the past 30 years?
That first one in Brookland was sweet.
The condo was not very spacious and the closets were too small. That's the down side of an older building.
I agree that the first condo was sweet. If you are a single or a couple, I think it’s plenty of space. It had a lot of sunny areas and even though it’s an older building, I think they did a good job of renovating it. The only downside for me is that it’s on the first floor. My first apartment was on the first floor and I didn’t like that but it was my first place I lived on my own and later I moved into a house. Sometimes you have to crawl before you walk. Luckily I never had any problems with people trying to break in. Of course, those were different times.
good perspective
The DC part of Takoma is more suburban-like than Brookland imo. I have lived next to Brookland nearly all my life and I have always viewed it as the Catholic part of the city (I am Catholic myself).
Takoma is great too
The first home, condo, was pretty nice, but I wouldn’t want a first floor condo. The second home was very nice, but it was too close to a high school, which made me think about noise. The last home had a very nice main floor and bedroom floor, but the lower level wasn’t laid out well, and the spiral staircase leading up to the attic floor could have been larger because the space could accommodate it. And the attic floor itself had very low ceilings, which made it unlivable. So, if I were choosing between the homes showcased here, I would go with the third home. It wasn’t as large, but it was very nice and I couldn’t find too many things I didn’t like about it. Thanks, Bashir, for taking us on this tour. You do great work! 🙏💪
Thanks for tagging along 👊🏽
For that 1st bedroom in that second single family home you showed, I would be more concerned with a younger child climbing over that balcony than I would about a teenager sneaking out. I would make sure that balcony door is childproofed. If the teenager thinks they’re slick enough to jump off that balcony and sneak out w/o hurting themselves in the process, I’d love to see the surprised look on their face when they find me sitting in the room waiting for them. I don’t have to worry about that now but I was very much an alert younger parent. But there’s always secrets that your kid doesn’t tell you until years later…..lol
@@almurry8943 🤣🤣🤣🤣im sure the teenagers can come up with a plan to outsmart their parents 😆
A Trader Joe’s will be coming the end of this year or next year.
Great, another grocery store option is Well needed!
Whaaaat? Where?

Love the Brookland area. I wish it was walkable distance to grocery stores, whole foods, restaurants etc. I’d be going to bus boy everyday 😩.
They sure will be glad to have you everyday 😆
Dolepending on what part of Brookland you love in, you can walk to Yes!.
@@renitalake3580 true
Can you help to find the appartment?
Are there any tear downs or available empty lots?
Every now and then they come up but not often, and when they do, they tend to sell pretty fast.
I lived in Brookland in the 90’s. Leaving was the worst mistake of my life. For the last house would it be possible to get a permit to build a parking space in the front or back?
Possibly. Where did you leave Brookland for?
I left for a job in NYC. I had finished grad school at Howard a year earlier. An older gentleman told me you will regret leaving. He was so right

My beloved DC has become unaffordable for the black folks of my old home town. Sad, and over priced.
With all do respect. It's extremely odd and creepy you would give a neighborhood a gender. Just my opinion 🤷
Yup , very creepy
