    Hearing stories here in NoVa of people losing bids for 200K over asking, with 300-400K winning. On homes in the >800K range

    Just what I'm hearing, don't twist.

    Yea it’s sick that I make decent money but live in the bay so am relatively speaking comparatively still a poor and will never be able to own a decent house within an hour of San Francisco. Fuck this bullshit I’m moving to Phoenix.

    In our shitty little HOA where we rent, tract homes are now approaching an 800K listing price. A 3 hour slog commute from LA in non pandemic times. The point of these outland areas was good schools and big homes at a low price so the two dads don't mind spending their lives in a car every day driving to and from work.

    Should be 300-400K at todays rate.

    As an aside and I know nobody wants to think about it but in 2005 leading to the big short in 06 and 07 homes around here were hitting 500-600K

    Became available as bank owns and at auction for 300-400K and it began again

    Saw an article that Phoenix is exploding with million dollar homes now as values race to the sky.

    Would have been a good flip market the last 3 years or so

    Like many here I am nails at spotting trends after they happen

    People commute from Temecula to LA ? I always thought it was San Diego or bust from there.

    Beautiful weather is intoxicating. People will take years off of their lives via stressful careers for such a thing.

    I've been here in Maui and the infrastructure is a joke. Parts of it looks like central Oregon fucking wasteland stuff even. But the 🌈 and beaches and warm weather appears to overcome all of that for people.

    I'm not judging, people should do what tf they want to.

    I read the house in Training Day is in the market for 1.1 million. The house is shitty and by Dodger Stadium. That isn’t a very nice or desirable area to most people.
