Garvinque Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) I am a simple man I like nice things but nothing to fancy so something between house one and house two, I think even if I could afford house three I would not buy a little to much! What say you all? Garvin Edited March 26, 2017 by Garvinque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pequod Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Interesting video if you live in LA. Although I live in a high cost of living area relative to the national average, houses and neighborhoods here are nothing like the average LA "densepack" neighborhood. What sold me on my current house was the privacy of the lot, backed into the woods, which was a real find in densely populated suburban DC. The outdoor space wasn't even a consideration in this video unto you got to house 3. So...the biggest takeaway of this video to me is this: Don't buy a house in LA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 I thought the first two were white sterile looking crap. The square footage of the first one was getting close to tiny house status. That's more like the square footage of a one bedroom house. If someone had the money to buy the 3rd one I'm sure they could find something nicer unless the space plan was just what you were looking for but the view was awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 There is a reason I choose to live smack dab in the middle of the country. I live way under my means. My brother lives in north east OK and has a home that exceeds the last "mansion" and he paid way under $10 mil for it. What those guys call closets I call phone booths. Not one of my exes could make do with anything that small ! Closets!? HA! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My work had a satellite office in Alhambra and I was expected to go down there once a quarter. You would not believe the difference between Northern California and Southern. A whole different world/mindset down there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
