In case you were out of town or busy at work, here is a quick rundown of some of the stories that UrbanTurf ran over the past week.

Here is a look at new listings in DC that we considered to be top-notch, one of which has already gone under contract.
We learned that a 49-unit condo project will be built behind Union Station.
We attempted to provide some perspective to the question: When is it a good time to refinance?
A report came out saying that Google searches could help predict home prices.
Just like Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae launched a home sales promotion.
DC has made a number of lists recently, including ones that say the city is good for families, but bad for allergies.
We took a look at how far $2,000 a month goes in rent in the area.
We profiled the Arlington neighborhood of Lyon Village that might be becoming more exclusive by the day.
Mortgage rates rose ever so slightly.
The neighborhoods between downtown and the suburbs are becoming the place to be.
