“sell it for more than six times what I bought it for less than than 10 years prior
Where was this house? Is “Pimp Daddy” still around? ”

The house was in Normal Heights. I missed the peak and I was a motivated seller :). At least one smaller shabbier house sold for more and mine was the low price leader or pretty nearly so, on ppsf for at least a year on both sides of the sale. Didn’t want to get greedy.
I typed a very long response as to why this happened and not only to me but to some of the other properties. I lost it on account of a faulty key stroke somewhere, sorry.Basically it was a convergence of the bubble, gentrification of this specific area and some houses benefitting greatly from infrastructure, businesses and housing stock improvements(tear downs, condo conversions and rehabs).
I googled “Pimp Daddy Limousines” I find a company but I don’t think the neighborhood “Pimp Daddy” had anything to do with it. The house he rented has sold and I have no idea where he is.
