[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t care what you people say - that’s freaking gorgeous. [/quote] yeah but it's in gaithersburg[/quote] Another racist. You voted for Trump, right? They look gorgeous from the outside too! Look at new home prices in Urbana, but that is probably ok since Urbana is more white? https://www.zillow.com/homes/new_homes/16111793_plid/globalrelevanceex_sort/39.387121,-77.22951,39.323541,-77.339373_rect/12_zm/0_mmm/[url][/quote] For crying out loud, there are reasons beyond racism that people might not want to live in Gaithersburg. It is far from DC and jobs in DC and Tysons/NoVa for that matter. It is similarly far from most of the attractions that make DC unique and exciting. There aren't many cultural attractions, highly regarded restaurants, or other things that make you say 'wow, I really want to be in Gaithersburg.' Sorry, if we aren't all as excited about Crown and Rio as you are.[/quote] So, people only work in DC and Tysons/NoVa, for that matter? It is fine that you don't care for it, but just be honest why you are so stunned that people are paying that much to live in....Gaithersburg. I bet you have no issue with paying more than that for a house in Potomac, even though the commute is almost as long if not longer(no metro) from some parts? Is it that YOU don't understand that people with money might choose to live there?! Do you believe that MD is the richest state in the Union because of one tiny part of the population that works in DC and Tysons? 1. Maryland • Median household income: $80,776 • Population: 6,052,177 (19th highest) • 2017 unemployment rate: 4.1 percent (22nd lowest) • Poverty rate: 9.3 percent (2nd lowest)[/quote] Try to take a couple of deep breadths so that some oxygen to your might allow you to get over your hysteria, righteous indignation, and fondness for straw men. I never said that everyone works in DC/NoVa. But lots of people do. And those people have a very legitimate [b]non-racist[/b] reason to not want to live in Gaithersburg. The fact that many people do work in those areas significantly reduces the market of people who are looking to live in Gaithersburg, which obviously will hold down real estate prices -- a non-racist reason to question whether a $1.5M townhouse. That it is a townhouse -- not a single family home -- is also a reason to question their value. It isn't common for THs to sell for substantially more than most surrounding SFH -- again a non-racist reason to question the value of these properties. As for Potomac, I wouldn't want to live there either. But most areas of Potomac are a significantly easier commute than Gaithersburg. [/quote]
