Does this house look familiar to you?
Well, it should! It was featured back in April 2007!
And with a dramatic price cut too! Now this house is affordable! Also, look at the new details: laundry room in the back of the house with separate entrance.
AMAZING.
There’s nothing I hate more than having a laundry room inside the house. It’s so disgusting and so inconvenient. I’d much rather go outside and around to use my laundry room.
But more importantly, this house is a testament to the entrepreneurial spirit of Silicon Valley - can you say “Coin op opportunity?” “Wash and fold opportunity?”
Get off your lazy ass. This is already a steal! Steal it and start your cash flow today!

i actually like the style of these kinds of homes, as IMO the perpendicular style has alot of potential, just not in this neighborhood.

Potential for ghetto wealth maybe. And it kinda looks like the whole house is on a giant carpet pad, notice that?

hey, the carpet matches the color of the house.

I used to work in East Palo Alto. Believe me, dont ever buy a house there. I would rather walk on the streets of Iraq knowing Al-Queda members are following me, than to walk on the streets of East Palo Alto.

Wow, look at that split-level design. Takes me back to my childhood, and then I start retching.
You gotta see this property on Redfin. Not only is the price another $10K lower, but they have more pictures. It’s like they’re pretending they’re selling a house, but they’re really saying STAY AWAY, THIS ONE’S BAD JUJU. From the completely unfocused shot of the living room and front door, to the bed with a spread but no slipcase on the pillow, to the back yard with a series of empty concrete pads (what is this place, NORAD-West?), this is where Spring Bounce will take you.

Is that an ivy on the left-hand corner of the outside wall?

It’s like someone started building townhouses but stopped after only one unit.

I just LOVE the fact that this house sits on a “gated good sized lot”. Gated? Gated from WHAT? I don’t see any gate, and the house looks pretty exposed to me.

Motivates Sellers: maybe jail time is looming for the owner. I wonder can you negotiate from prison? I wonder who would have the upper hand. I’ll lower offer to $200K but will bring a carton of Marlboros?

That house does not provide concealment or cover.
It does provide a wonderful opportunity to lose $50k a year though, and in the end, isn’t that what it’s all about?
