If it wasn't for the importance of good schools we'd have a house already. About 100k difference between neighboring school districts.

better yet, move to the cheaper location, but buy a house that's modestly larger than you would normally buy, and significantly less money. you skip all the stupid things that aren't really surface costs that come with a home that's twice the size you have now, now you need to fill it with things, heat it, cool it, insure it, maintain it, clean it. https://www.realtor.com/realestatean...7_M15439-42598 the above home is $850,000 https://www.realtor.com/realestatean...8_M85190-60551 this one in Houston is higher, but much more lavishly appointed, more land, more home, more everything, and in a really nice neighborhood. https://www.realtor.com/realestatean...8_M80796-33063 this one is nearly half the price, just a bit less appointed, but you get the land, and a similar sized home in the same area. you go from a 4000 mortgage to a 2100 mortgage. in a year that $24000 in your pocket. you can get a RS5, take a swank ass vacation, redo the bathrooms (maybe add a washroom for guests), and still have money left over to invest in your crypto asset of choice. |

house closed this morning. getting the keys from the title company at lunch. paid a skosh under $250/sf.
kind of crazy to think that when I bought my first house 12 years ago I paid about $100/sf, and going by comps, if I add a second bathroom to it, I should be able to sell it for the $250/sf mark as well. |

An identical house/property to ours in the neighborhood just went up for sale for $650,000. Thats $100,000 more than this place was valued at before the pandemic! Houses that go up for sale in Norcal are getting like 20-30 bids, most over listing and many for straight up cash. Totally nuts right now. |

The house I just sold in October would easily sell for $100k more today. It's crazy.

Just got my home appraisal back and am finishing on refinancing my mortgage this week. Appraisal came in at $255,000 and I paid $120,000 back in 2015.

I was annoyed having to pay $146/sq.ft on ours here in N.Texas, when we started looking 8-9 years ago it was all $90-110/sq.ft for much more central locations. |

Damn. I just checked Zillow. I did a refi about a year ago. My house has gone up about 23% from what it was appraised for back then.

Our "Zestimate" is now $11,5k higher than we bought it for 2,5mo's ago. (At time of purchase it was within $1k of sell price, not that it matters much). |

zillow does seem on the high end. It puts my house 55k above.
Then again, there are similar houses which are listed for that much, so thats probably where the number came about. Realtor.com put me 5k above from what I purchased from last year. Couple more years and Ill be able to sell for a fortune |
