The little 1334 sq ft house I sold in Feb 2001 for $242,000 is now on the market for $380,000. Tee hee. What fool would pay that kind of money? It was pricey when I bought it in 1983 for $105,000. I unloaded it at a time when there were still people with good paying jobs who could afford to buy it.
June 3rd marked the one year anniversary of the shutdown of Wingcast in San Diego. Over 200 people with salaries over $100K/yr were dumped. Many of them are still unemployed a year later. Many of them WERE homeowners. Some of them are unemployed homeowners with overpriced property that won't move.
