Just in time for the weekend. It was actually a Mission District condo that claimed the top spot on the Top 10 Overbid List (see below) at damn near 52% over asking (we calculate via percentage not $$), but have a look at 268 Wawona in West Portal… Listed at $2,895,000, barely a minute on … Continue reading If You Sold Your Home For $1,355,000 Over Asking, Where Would You Go?

Wanderlust: Sweden Ain’t All IKEA You Know

Is It The Price Or The Mold That Brought You Here?
From $138,900 to $49,900 (the magic number) 880 Ashwood Ave, Vallejo, CA was quite simply too good to pass up. We’re not sure if it was the price that was so eye-catching ($49,900..oh!

Walkabout: Oaxaca Mexico and $380,000
Let’s face it. Our front page is filled with too much text, too much black and white, and too much doom and gloom as of late. Time to go walkabout (get your best Australian accent on when you say that), and head south of the border. All you surfers should delight in this Oaxacan beauty … Continue reading Walkabout: Oaxaca Mexico and $380,000
