One neighbor wised up, another went nuts.
You may remember that I mentioned a couple weeks ago that the guy across the street from me had put his <800 sq foot house on the market for $1 million. I stated then that he was dreaming, and apparently he has awaken and took the house off the market. Things seem to be back to normal . . . until today.
I notice the people next door to him are packing up all their stuff and moving. As I have known the family for 15 years or so, and they have lived across the street for 5 years, I decided to ask what brought this on.
They have lived there for 5 years, paying $1,200/mo for a two bedroom <800 sq foot duplex, and the owners bumped their rent by $500!!
$1,700 a month? For a 2 bedroom? Damn, if they find someone to take it I may be tempted to knock this place down and build two units here.
