This tiny little cottage’s price per square foot is about 40% above Belmont’s median.  I think it could fall at least 30% before it is even remotely reasonable.

This house’s facade reminds me of a shoebox with random holes cut into it and it is the same size as the condo I live in. This is a bank owned property and I think they are being a bit too optimistic with the price. I think this will stay on the market for a very long time if they don’t start cutting $100k a month. It is currently more than $100k less than its 2005 price.

Sqft: 1,330
Style: Residential

I think this property was on MLS a while back and went off the market. Now I see it on Craigslist for $748888 in the for sale by owner category!  It was last sold in 2006 for $760000 so the difference isn’t all that large, and it has a basement.  That’s pretty rare in the Bay Area.  Anyway the Craigslist listing says to call (520)603-6457 or email hous-788333134@craigslist.org if you’re interested.

This is a pre-foreclosure, which means that if it doesn’t sell and gets foreclosed it will probably come back on the market at a lower price.  It’s a small rancher in Pacifica that doesn’t seem all that special.  I would buy it if it were another 50% off.

Brand new listing.  This is about the size of the house I want, but I think 420k is still a bit too much right now.  Also, Daly City is too far from work.

This fairly new listing is a fixer upper and looks like it’s bank owned since that last sale price is really recent and is an odd number.  It’s located in a decent enough section of Belmont and has potential.
