4. No,you'd have to be overpaid |
|
and desperate for that mortgage tax deduction, as well as a permanent living space without a stomper upstairs and a Mariachi band downstairs.
The one with the potential of scooting on down the hill was pretty funny---all it needs is a retaining wall and a miracle, or maybe god will finish the demolition so the lot will be ready for a McMansion on deep pilings.
I have cousins in Santa Cruz and San Jose. I just hope they're living better than THAT.

6. Survived the RE downturn |
|
in Houston in the 80's. I've been advising folks to hold off for some time now and that the RE market was about to go under. It was awful here in Texas and it took us over a decade to recover.

... but the nice thing is that this downturn is not likely to affect Texas that much, we never had the nutty price appreciation to begin with.

9. Let me guess they are all in southern Cali |
|
Most of those same houses in Indianapolis would go for up to 75k because of Indy's fake housing bubble and I thought that was to damn high!

10. Mostly in SF Bay Area, I think |
|
The price of the East Palo Alto one blew me away. It's been a few years since I lived in the Bay Area, but I remember East Palo Also as being a fairly rough, economically depressed area with a predominantly minority population - contrasting with Palo Alto, home of Stanford University, very affluent and white.
