This is only a 3-bed house. I can't help wondering what the price would be without that very lovely pool. Mrbogue: My thoughts exactly on the photography. This is only a 3-bed house.

I like Monterey Market and Solano, but not for $896 a square foot! Maybe she's not really desperate to sell, or wants to help bring up the area's comparables value with a far-fetched "zillow make me move" like price. Anyhow, the pictures are already up: http://www.prurealty.com/propertyDetail.aspx?listingid=6-40341246&src=propSearch Looks pretty, but you'd would think for a $1.8M house she could atleast find a photographer that understands aperture. Heh!

Has Berkeley been annexed by Woodside? My first thought was that this must be an insistent and unrealistic seller browbeating their poor and harried agent. But in fact, it's an agent selling her own home. Good luck, Nancy! Yow! $896/sf! Has Berkeley been annexed by Woodside?

I like the median rent, but their other calculations (valuations, cash flow etc) seem to be way off. I don’t quite understand cruncher’s numbers.

I understand though that these homes often require huge amounts of work and that they don't suit everyone. Still, I can dream!
