This is an interesting property because it has a sales history from the last housing bubble to the current housing bubble. There are enough datapoints for me to make a graph.
Series 1 is a series of the sales prices, ending with the current listing price. Series 2 is a graph of the original $144,000 sales price in 1989 appreciating by 3% per year. After nearly 20 years, the current sales price does not beat the inflation adjusted price from 1989! However, the person that bought in 1995 did get an excellent rate of appreciation. So I guess catching the bottom and selling at the peak is the most profitable thing to do.

This is yet another off MLS listing I found on Craigslist. It’s a pretty small condo and it’s now listing for $299k. That makes it $610 per squarefoot. As far as San Mateo condos go, that’s still pretty expensive.

These condos rent for about $1400 a month, so $168,000 is almost reasonable. It does have a pretty high HOA and it is located in Crown Colony, which is a pretty big and old complex in Daly city.

I love how the description of the house on Redfin reads: “price hard to ignore given the advantages of owing in this area. probably best value home in the area. “ That’s right,if you buy this house you will owe somebody money. That’s very appropriate I suppose.

My ex-coworker showed me this breaking news report. According to this additional Chronicle article, multiple weapons were found at the scene of the house and three men were dead. One of the men apparently lived in the house and two others were found in the garage which was converted in a living space. Supposedly it was a home invasion/robbery gone wrong. I’m not sure if the guy that lived there was the owner, but either way, this is very disturbing news. May the dead rest in peace and if you have any information about this please call the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office at 650-363-4911 or the anonymous tip line at 1-800-547-2700.

This is a bank owned property on the very busy corner of Woodside and Middlefield. Seriously I didn’t know they had residential properties there. I’m not sure what this section of the description means: “GREAT VISIBILITY FOR LAW FIRM? ENGINEER? CPA?” I’m not sure what it’s asking.
