And the only reason you think its pricing is appropriate is because you think your own house is worth way more than it really is, Ben.

It looks really nice now - it's unusual to see a blend of classical and contemporary the way it's been done here. It's definitely "above average" in finish quality, so I don't think the pricing is out of line with other listings of similar size/quality in the neighborhood (it sits right on the border with Los Altos Hills). I will be very interested to see what this goes for, since I'm doing something similar to my place just up the road. I saw this house before and after the renovation.

Perhaps a keyboard without a broken caps-lock key would help too. Isn't there some holiday charity that helps agents with these sorts of things?
