CUPERTINO, Calif. - Just when you thought the Bay Area real estate market could not get any crazier than it is already, a house in Cupertino, basically the size of a hotel room, sold on Friday after just six days on the market.

The house does not even have any sort of heating nor a stove, and it is just 384 square feet.

The seller’s agent says there were over 100 potential buyers through the home during an open house last weekend. A contract has now been signed with a buyer and the house should be officially off the market by the weekend.

It takes just a matter of seconds to see the three rooms: a bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom.

Just six days after the home was listed, Cherry Xie put down an offer and signed a contract that she says is well above the $1.7 million asking price.

It’s the lot, nearly 8000 sq feet. There will be a total demolition for new build or a major add on.

I think heating is required by law in California Even when a house is sold as is, it has to follow the law. But this is the craziness of Cal market. Cup is a good place to live as is nearby Saratoga. Maybe apple will buy it for storage.

Yes, he did. When I bought in ‘78, I’d missed the huge run-up the previous five years and thought “I’m screwed. I’m buying at the peak.”
