a similar house here, well it did have a basement but otherwise identical, sold for over 600k. That house im in now was bought for 178k in 1989, and it's probably worth about 500 now.

Well, I just signed the counter offer for a settled on purchase price of 459,000 dollars!!!

What does almost 1/2 a million dollars get for you here in San Diego you ask? A 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom 1304 sq ft single story on 7000 sq ft of land Actually, things are slowing down in this market, similar houses were going for 480-500 back in May when everyone was trying to buy "before the rates go up"

Oh well, at least the crappy jobs outlook today drove the intrest rates back down ! I should end up with a low 5 to high 4% rate on my first.

Yeah, my sister rents a place in Manhattan and her rent will be comparable to my mortgage. We all grew up in a little town (Ipswich) north of Boston, and somehow decided to find the most unaffordable places possible to live
