jstoesz, the two on 11th and the one on 12th are the only comps to your 2006 “sold comp.” (Properties 2, 4 & 5.) Properties 1 and 3 are larger and thus would command a higher price (and lower ppsf). Not sure what the lot size is around there, but it is clear that whoever paid $520K in 2006 is grossly underwater by now (or has lost a large downpayment on paper, anyway). Be GLAD you didn’t decide to make an offer on it in 2006, when sellers across the country were still in “la-la land.” (Some still are, lol.)

I could go on. No, these are not “tudors” on PL’s finest streets. But they are comparable in price to Minn, MN apples to apples. The charming ‘hoods and walkability that you are looking for are THERE (SANS the frozen screen door 8 mos per yr).

Again, why aren’t you still considering your “beloved” SD, jstoesz?
