This little shack is currently owned by HSBC.  It is incredible that someone actually bought this for $589k a few years ago.  This is not exactly in a good neighborhood.

This bank owned property was first purchased in 2002 for $490k with two loans of $392k and $98k.  That’s right, that’s equivalent to  a 0% down loan.  And then in 2004 it was refinanced again with an adjustable loan of $520k and it seems like there was a transfer between family members.  And then in 2006 it was refinanced again with two loans of $612,000 and $76,500 for a total of $688,500.  So basically this family took out around $200k from this little house during the boom, and finally it went into foreclosure so the last lender is looking around a loss of $280k.  It seems like it was a good deal for this particular family because they practically got to live in this house for more than 4 years for free.

This bank owned property is probably one of the cheapest single family homes on the Peninsula and it looks like it still has some appliances left. It’s about $460k off its peak price, and that’s pretty sad.

This house is currently owned by Countrywide/Bank of America and the last sale was a foreclosure auction.  It is in a good area and the size is decent, but the house is pretty old and it has the old style electric heaters.  It’s interesting to see that some of the past owners of this home had 100% financing as early as 2002 when the home sold for $530,000.  Now I guess they realized that all that money didn’t really exist to begin with.    The price has been dropped about $50k since its listing in the end of October.

This is just truly frightening.  I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves:

I think the following is a baby’s room:

I think this is an oven??

There are some more pics on the listing, and I’m glad the realtor is really honest about this POS, but I can’t believe they’re still charging nearly $240k for this? And at first they actually wanted $300k for it.  Just incredible.

This listing first came up in May for $650k, and then it probably got foreclosed on, and now it’s back on the market as a REO for around 70k less than the May price.   That’s a decent discount of $10k per month, but it’s still $572 per square foot.
