[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's an itty bitty new one, inbound for Maury and listed at $550.

$805/sq. ft. is insane. No curb appeal, completely paved over with mossy, cracking concrete. Even liar lens can't hide that the second bedroom barely holds a twin bed. 680 sq ft is smaller than a lot of one-bedroom apartments. I suppose painting everything gray (and highlighting new paint as a key feature of the home) solves everything.[/quote]

yeah but it’s a 2-bedroom house zoned for Maury with no condo fees. If you can put down 10-20% it’s equivalent to rent. Much better deal than a condo. [/quote]

Does zoned for Maury matter if a family won't fit inside?[/quote]

Of course a small family can fit inside, if you want. People have different priorities in life. [/quote]

The problem is not that it’s small. It’s that it’s small, not particularly nice or well-laid-out or kid-friendly, plus it’s very expensive price per sq foot. For the same amount, you could get a 2-bedroom condo in the same neighborhood with better upgrades, nicer layout, and more space. Hard pass.[/quote]

A house is always a better value than a condo.  And show me the 2-bedroom condo zoned for Maury at the same price point? Again it's fine if you don't like it, but don't pretend that it's not a good deal for the right buyer. [/quote]
