Plus a $24,000 Bond. The Canadian owners must be getting a little nervous about the way things are going.

I think the average resale price for a 2/2 patio villa is now well over 300K. Now that is ridiculous.

Not only housing, look at the economy in general...everything is out of control.

A friend of ours paid $650K for a nice house in Rhode Island about 25 months ago. Listed it for $999K. First day 8 offers. Final sale $1,170,000. It was a nice house but gimme a break. two Doctors started bidding against each other. This deal included no inspections and no contingencies. Cashish! Nuts!

Totally out of control but the day of reckoning is coming nothing goes up forever.

Bet those two MDs had competitive histories, went head to head, and neither could stand the other getting the house! Your friend got lucky!

Our poor grand kids. They have no idea.

Not for long. Everyday my neighborhood has more listings and no new sales. 2 sales didn’t close. Bet appraisal came up short

If your "poor grandkids" are educated and in the right business, they will earn more in a lifetime than you ever did. I have two granddaughters earning over six figures right now and they are not 25 yet.

Wrong neighborhood, homes in our area are usually sold before the sign gets in the window and those that take a little longer either are on a bad lot or the owners are a little too greedy but they all eventually will sell.

Three went up on our street in April as spec homes. All were sold within minutes.
