I bought a 4 br 2 1/2 for $31k in 1971 in Clinton Md. My ex still

My first house I bought for $25000 in 1969 is zillow at $466k now. But
zillow is wrong on the number of bedrooms, unless somebody changed the
house. Was 3 bed, 2 bath when we had it. Sold it for $79k in 1979.

Funny about Zillow. My house is one of the bigger in the neighborhood, and
is listed at less than the 500 sq ft smaller home across the street. And
the same basic house 5 down the street just sold for $789k and mine has
both
an extra 450' family room and a pool.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, they are way off in my neighborhood, too. I've got one of the
newest houses in the area, etc. By the way, they don't give you
anything in value for a pool, it's a wash because some people may not
want the pool. But I know I sure like mine!

It removes about 50% of the buyers from what I understand. Others want the
pool, so is a plus $$$ for them. Years ago the people down the street
adopted 7 Ethiopian children. He was a physicist at the Livermore labs so
he was strange. Instead of getting a swimming teacher for the kids, they
filled in the pool with dirt and planted lawn over it. They moved a couple
years later to the Central Valley for more room. When it gets to be 100
degrees here, I bet those kids would have preferred an nice pool over a
lawn.

It depends on the location. Our former house had a pool and we were
thinking at one point of pulling up stakes and moving (to California of all
places). We got an appraisal on the value of the house and were surprised
that the pool was actually a negative. Less than 20 percent of buyers in
the Northeast wanted a pool. (can't blame 'em).

I ended up filling it in. I also turned down the job in California.

Oh.... then we bought this house. First major addition was a pool. Go
figure.

I am just over the hills from San Francisco Bay. So we get lots of 90
degree, low humitity days in the summer and colder winters. I have had ice
on the surface of the pool. Locally pools eliminate about 50% of the buyers
according to my friendly real estate broker. But is not a negative on the
selling price.

Yeah, Zillow sez the one I bought for $25000 and change is worth $325
now.
We lived in that house for just under five years, and then sold it
for
$85K or so and bought another new house a bit closer in...and then
sold that house in four years and built a custom house for, well, a
bit more. :)
What's the address of the $25,000 house?

You can always tell when Harry has lied, because if someone asks him
about it, you won't get an answer. If he HAD of told the truth, he'd
offer up pictures, cites, etc.

I know. But, it is fun to pester Harry about these things because
sooner or later he will show a picture of something he owns, like a
scruffy old sheet over a broken down sofa to prove he has a pet cat or
too.

The pictures I liked the best were his custom made, off the rack
cabinets for his "office." Who the hell puts kitchen cabinets in their
office especially ones you purchase at Home Depot?


Since we installed a full kitchen in my office area, it seemed
appropriate to use kitchen cabinets. The cabinets are not "made" until
they are ordered, fool. They're not sitting around in the warehouse. And
as for Home Depot, they sell many cabinet lines I am sure are superior
to whatever crap is hanging on the walls of your kitchen.


Why would you install a full kitchen in your office area? Do you need to
constantly stuff your mouth with food while working?

The office in my home doesn't need a kitchen. I have a kitchen down the
hall.

That must be a rhetorical question. Have you seen those fat fingers?
From the number of posts Harry Krause makes, it looks like he has
replaced his office chair with a toilet so he doesn't have to get up to
take a crap.

I would also guess his wife prefers if he stays in the basement and
leaves her along.

Why? Because we could. In addition to housing my office, the lower level
of the house has an entertainment center for family and friends and a
huge guest bedroom and full bath, and will soon have a fireplace. We
often have guests and relatives staying over, typically for more than a
night. With all the facilities, our guests are very comfy.

I think you are a renter and that Hazel built an apartment in the
basement to keep you out of the upstairs.
