Comments: It seems like condos are not very good investments. This one is $10000 under its 2001 price. I guess it is coastside, but it is still a pretty nice place.

Comments: This is a house pretty close to where I live. I would buy it if it were $350k or so. I guess it might happen in a year or so if it drops at the same rate. This one has an assessment of $900k still. That means an instant equity of $350k!

Comments: I love it, the listing says “Great opportunity for a buyer seeking sweat equity”. Does that mean you have to sweat? Or you are taking the sweat equity of a previous owner? This home actually sold for $375000 in 2001! This means that the listing price today is only $4900 above its 2001 price. Wow, what a bargain!

Comments: This is a fairly large house that supposedly has panoramic mountain views. I’m not sure why so many houses in Daly City are painted with horrendous colors, though.

Comments: I’m guessing the brickwall is just decorative and not protective because it seems like you can just step over it. Shoreview is not the prettiest neighborhood in San Mateo, but if you just knock off maybe another $100 to $150k off this property you might come out cash flow positive by renting it out.
