Thanksgiving Turkeys in Lemon Grove
Stale, half-baked, hard to swallow.
This is a sort of reverse Bang 4 Your Buck- homes that seem expensive for their size, homes that haven’t sold despite a long listing term. You may look at the $3-400/sq.ft. and wonder how that can be overpriced; which only goes to show that you’ve been at the beach too long. Prices here have to meet a different standard.

A small house on a small (3,920 sq. ft.) lot in a noisy area of Lemon Grove. After not selling for so long, you’d think they would reconsider.

Interesting photo but I’d like to see more of the house- are they hiding something? To be fair, they say that much is new in the house, especially the kitchen. And also, if I were selling my house I would hold out for a good offer too.
So, what do these single family homes have in common? High price, long time no sell, old, small… Among others is the sense that the owners don’t seem desperate for a quick sale. Quite a contrast to many current listings.
