[quote=flyer]. . . Got the house in RSF for a song years ago. . . [/quote]
flyer, believe it or not, I saw a one-story house that needed updating (cosmetic fixer) in Fairbanks Ranch in either late ’93 or early ’94 for $274K! IIRC, it was just over 3K sf on a 20K+ sf lot. I KNOW great deals were to be had in the RE downturn of the ’90’s (when many longtime residents fled the county for other locales).
We could have easily qualified to buy it at the time but it would have been a VERY inconvenient location for us and we were averse to “covenant rules” and the addt’l cost of living within it.
