Summary answer: Given Annandale's genuine competitiveness (102.3% sale-to-list, over half of homes selling above list) and steady appreciation (+3.5%-3.7% YoY in recent measures), this is not a passive buyer's window — but the area's central location and genuine cultural draw still make it a reasonable investment if you're prepared to compete.
