Yep. This house was only 11% less last year. Don’t you wish you had bought it then? Now you’re priced out! See! They told you so!

Tomorrow, we’ll see what $999,000 can buy you somewhere else… (it won’t be as special though.)

    I can’t believe someone even paid $450k back in 1999 for that place.

    Sad. Just sad.

    To be fair though, it’s a huge lot.

    Redfin has this description:
    “Invest. prop/live or build/Front home vacant, just go/Land not sub-dividable Two homes on large lot approx. 10,920 sf. DO NOT DISTURB TENANTS in back home. Check w/ City of Mt. View on zoning. (R3)”

    What does R3 mean?
    I’m pretty sure this part of Mt View belongs to the Los Altos school district, so buyers are always willing to pay more. Wonder if the 2nd home is a legal unit or not.

    Oh… it’s R3?

    I think that means you can have multiple homes there.

    Well, in that case, this might actually be worth the price.
