Sad? No. Wondering how many other 20-40 years are letting their parents spend millions to buy property for them and then poo-pooing that they didn't really get 'any help' there are, yeah....

Why is this in real estate?

It belongs in politics.

He laundered $ and his family benefitted. How about we talk about the poor South Korean immigrant / US Army Vet who the IRS seized $60K from - and will not give it back. The S. Korean immigrant did nothing wrong.

I used to live across the street from that house. Always loved it!

In your opinion is it worth what they paid for it? Honestly I'm underwhelmed by all the details - there's no privacy outside, at least four different color woods throughout the home, and everything except the kitchen looks dated.

But the market value would be higher. I wouldn't be surprised if they could get close to $2M. That's a nice house on a huge lot in a great location.

We live nearby, I have always admired that house! It's adorable.

Yup. The Redfin estimate is $2.2M - sounds much closer. Nicer pics too.

Only close to 2M? Still losing money after 5 years?

I used to live right around the corner from that house -- it was stunning, especially before the previous owners subdivided the lot. When they put it up for sale, the open house was INSANE.

It's such a special house. What a shame it's been tainted by those ugly people.

Redfin's basing that on the fact the current owner's shell overpaid in the first place. It sold for $100,000 less than asking in 2012 and a month latter was put back on the market for $300,000 over what they paid. No idea why the daughter/shell agreed to what couldn't have been a very nice flip but they did.

Which begs the question - how many homes are selling at 'market rate' to foreign investors or blood money rich contractors and not at the actual value of the home? It's great for the former owners who cashed in, just wondering what the the future buyers are going to think.
