Isn't that the truth. My reaction is to feel very smug to look at what they're paying for some of those places.
If you want to be REALLY shocked, have you watched International Househunters?
Shep up again.

I have. How about the episode where the couple was looking for a home in Paris. If I understodd correctly, the city can say no to a deal because of any amount of reasoning, including if the couple is obese. in this case one of the couple was American. They passed muster and were allowed to buy the home. The teaser for the last segment was them waiting on "personal" approval. Geesh.
At least the homes that are so sky high in CA actually have good plumbing. I'm in awe of what passes for a "nice" bathroom or kitchen on HH International.
Oh, yes...International Househunters...in some parts of Europe, you can get a LARGE closet for the cost of a 3 bedroom home in Texas...LOL
