Spring
It’s rainy.
It’s on again off again cold/warm
And the “For Sale” signs are littering Shaw.
I was sad to see the couple on NJ and Q put up their cute little house for sale. I ran into John Bratton, a Realtor who mainly does Shaw, and he said they wanted a lot for the house. He apparently suggested a price below their expectations so they have someone else. Some other houses I pretty much expected to go up for sale, just wondered how long it would take them. These are the houses that have been rehabbed, converted, cleaned up over Winter. Well I can say there is nothing under $200K in the hood. The prices are now in the neighborhood of $300K and $400K. I couldn’t afford to live here. I wonder with this price increase if the neighborhood can maintain it’s economic diversity.
