Moderately Confused by Jeff Stahler for March 09, 2022

Talk about crazy markets. Houses on our street routinely sell in one bracket. Sunday, first day on market, one sold for cash at a third higher, no inspection, no appraisal. Gives every house a big comp for now. Later, when reality strikes the market, that might by a by-gone dream.

Thing is, the seller is moving into the house next door. Wonder how that will work out? New folks move in, get settled. Seller hears knock on his door and opens to find buyer: Sorry to bother you but could we talk about the water heater and the leak under the toilet? A little late, maybe, but also maybe not the last time that happens.

Like owning a duplex and renting out the other unit. Your door is always open for complaints.

Elsa was happy that Ken and Barbie were able to “Let it Gooooo”

Inflated housing prices – doesn’t anyone remember “underwater mortgages?” Oh well, history is a boring subject which is why people have difficulty remembering it.

Monopoly is issuing more money so people can buy houses.

That game always interested me: houses cost the same no matter what neighborhood they are in.

And thanks to the people who bought into our neighborhood at a hundred thousand plus over market, our taxes went up. And they’ll never go back down.

They went 10 Oreo Cookies over asking price…

Barbie is back to living in the pink RV.

Barbie had to buy the house down the street but she was able to flip it for a profit after doing nothing but changing the curtains. :)

Yes but Barbie with Ken!

Perhaps they are a double income with no kids kind of couple.
