Well, not really...but a friend sent me the link to his house on Zillow this morning and we had a good laugh over the photos...

$276/ft2 is ridiculous. I don't see how some people can afford to live in some areas of the country.

And that is cheap for here too. About a mile north of there is $600/ft2 and then if you're in Queen Anne near downtown Seattle it is upwards of $1k/ft2. But then again that is nothing compared to Manhattan or Hollywood hills...

it's always interesting when I hear someone who's just moved here complaining about the costs of living.... they thought "wow, huge salary" but not "wow, it costs double to live here as it does in the midwest"
I get a good comparison because I can compare my billable, hourly rate with other areas of the country - and that gives me a good idea of the relative costs


still, it's a hummer in every garage in Seattle :horns:

Heh, you should look around LA! A fixer-upper originally built in 1912 will still run over a half million dollars. Then again, I don't have A/C and I barely use the heater thanks to the weather.

That house is beautiful.

That house is beautiful.

The interior is even more incredible and the entire roof is a deck with 360 degree views of downtown Seattle, etc. Pretty awesome. And now enshrined on Zillow with my H3T

I Agree Housing in LA is out of control....and all the houses are garbage...not to mention the damn traffic.
