A shaggy dog on ebay
Published Wednesday, May 17, 2006 by Real Estate Pro.This duplex is the our first wreck from an ebay auction.
Washington area of the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles, the owner has it listed for $815k. Not at the moment, then just give it some time. However, the reverse is more likely; if you buy this wreck, your loss will be their gain. However, that charity will start in my home and not in some rancid wreck in L.A currently housing some desperate dog loving wannabe New Englanders.

Calling all investors
Published by Real Estate Pro.I am getting a very bad feeling about the Mount Washington district of LA. The realtor suggests that the house can be remodelled. The write-up also claims that it is very reasonable priced, since other houses on the street have "sold for a million dollars." Yet, there is someone on the same street who thought that that another house was worth $1 million. Perhaps, it is a very long road, and the million dollar house is way over at the other end.

Housing Market: Double Agents
Published Sunday, May 14, 2006 by Real Estate Pro.Kenneth Harney at the Washington Post brings us a tale of realtors playing both sides of the transaction in an effort to get their precious commission. If you don't trust them to mess up your Big Mac order, why would you trust someone with even less training--and more incentive to pad their own pockets--to ensure you sell your home and buy for the best price possible?

Come on, Examiner, I know you're a free paper and what not, but THIS is the best you can do? You gotta wonder if the poor woman in the City Paper article really, seriously LOOKED at the place she was buying before plonking down the cash.
