Call me crazy, but when I look at that “house”, it looks to me like it started out as an ordinary mobile home which has been enclosed and added on to. Look at the houses on either side - they are obviously mobile homes too. Now there is nothing wrong with that but seriously, can one get a mortgage on a mobile home for $270,000? No wonder housing values are all messed up.
Well, you have to consider where this is, just a few miles south and west of San Francisco....$270,000 is probably the gong rate for a dump in this area.

Great observations. Now that I look at it closely, I dont see a front door. Like most mobile homes, the entrance is on the side of the home. Also, the home sits up higher than a normal foundation and the roof construction is lightweight.
These guys need to be hauled in and questioned under oath.
Then call me crazy too:

That sure looks like a converted trailer to me.

IN the SF area it’s quite possible. I have a cousin in Davis, CA, about 80 miles west who owns a not particularly well maintained three bedroom house with 2 baths (one non-functional) on a lot not much larger than the Paw place. Its current value is about $600,000. Northern CA real estate values are insane.
There are green ones, and blue ones and pink ones and yellow ones and
They're are all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same
