Outpriced
A 500-square-foot condo
near Precita Park just got bid at least $100k over asking, putting the price well over half a million dollars, and well out of my price range.
This is happening a
lot. Places I wouldn't
rent are selling for vastly more than I can afford. And thanks to J and I having bought a house many years ago, I'm coming in with an obscenely large down payment.
Maybe it's time to re-define "home". Or find
something exciting to do and wait a while before wriggling my roots back into the ground. It's not inconceivable that the market will calm down in a while. Even my Realtor is aghast.
I wonder.
