Your opinions are unreasonable, you just dont realize it yet. There was once a gal around here that I went head to head with on a nightly basis. Her extreme opinions have already been proven to be horribly misguided. You can call it rudeness if you want but I call it like is. If someone’s opinions are based on false assumptions I will take you to task. I’ve done it with the Bulls around here as frequently as the Bears in the last couple years.
Your 1st example sold for 320,000 in 1996 meeting the 1st part of your definition. However, it sold for 780 in the Summer of 2005. Not only was it never a 900K+ plus home it was never even an 800K+ home.
Your 2nd example on Zebrina sold for a 387,500 new in 1994!!! With modest move-in improvements including landscaping/hardscaping they were into it for 450,000 in 1994 which is essentially the bottom of the last go-round. Furthermore, in 1998 the house next door with the same floorplan sold for $460,000 which is a far cry from 300k to 400k. It sold again for 902,000 in 2006.
