Kerri is Key Kerri is Key is a labor of love founded by Kerri Murphy.

I am on a quest to learn more about DC, its history, its residents, its neighborhoods, and all that this wonderful city has to offer.

DC buyers, don’t overlook co-ops 👀

I know everyone talks about condos, but some of the best values in the city are hiding in buildings like this one.

This 1-bedroom at 2720 Wisconsin Ave NW has the charm people love about older DC buildings—Art Deco details, great natural light, generous room sizes—and it’s in the middle of one of my favorite neighborhoods.

You can grab coffee, run errands, meet friends for dinner, hop on a bus to Georgetown or downtown, and be back home before you know it.

And here’s the kicker: the monthly co-op fee includes both property taxes and utilities. For a lot of buyers, that can make budgeting a whole lot simpler.

Add in a rooftop with incredible city views, a well-managed building, and an 89 Walk Score, and you’ve got a home that’s worth a closer look.

Thinking about buying your first place in DC? This is exactly the kind of opportunity I’d want you to know about.

Some homes just make life feel easier — and this one in Takoma DC is definitely one of them.

You’ve got the big front porch, the dreamy backyard setup, walk-in closets in every bedroom, and enough flexible space to actually fit your life.

Plus you’re moments from The Parks at Walter Reed, JuneBerry, Whole Foods, parks, coffee shops, and an easy Metro commute.

This is the kind of home that gives you neighborhood charm and city convenience at the same time. 🤍

Most kids grew up watching Nickelodeon — we didn’t have cable. I grew up gardening and DIYing on the weekends. 😅

I’ve been talking about houses for as long as I can remember; the child of DIYers and the niece of a contractor.

Turns out it wasn’t a phase. It was a career path.

So if you’re looking for someone in Takoma Park, Silver Spring, or DC who genuinely loves this stuff and will absolutely send you listings “just because,” I’m your person.

If you look out your window and see a brick wall, I’m talking to you.

This is what I mean when I say location matters.

🥕On Saturdays? Farmers market right outside your door.�🍻Need a go-to spot? Moreland’s Tavern is literally across the street.�🚌Commuting downtown? The express bus is right there—no long walks, no hassle.

It’s the kind of setup that just makes your day-to-day easier (and a lot more fun).

If you’ve been thinking about buying your first place in DC, this is exactly the kind of lifestyle that makes it worth it.
