[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A good friend deciding between a job in the DC suburbs and one in Ohio took the one in Ohio for precisely this reason -- he said something almost exactly like "If I'm going to spend a million dollars on a house, it should be practically a mansion."  (He spent half of that, on a huuuuuge custom built house in Ohio.)

When we were house hunting a couple years ago (after the market crash!), my low point was driving all the way across town to see a new house on the market for $990K.  It was very small (I think they used a funky lens to make it look big in the pictures!), had appliances that were at least 30 years old in the kitchen, had really disgustingly dirty bathrooms, and had a significant mold smell in the "finished" basement.  I was absolutely astounded when it sold for close to asking price a couple months later. [/quote]

Understood, but then you are living in Ohio.

This area is overpriced.  I was born and raise in this area.
Still remember Clarendon was were you could score some smack and the old SEARs.

When I was a kid I thought $100K was alot because I saw my Dad's paycheck.
Now I make more than that and still live beneath my means.

This area is Candyland, the housing and schools are not reality.[/quote]
