$2.45 $2.45!!! 2 bowls will get something like 9 lbs of Quaker at Costco! Now that's a markup.

But cheap! Until he realized there were tastier foods, I was feeding my boy breakfast from a big box of Costco oats for like 4 cents a week! They could mark it up 8000%, and it would still appear cheap next to a maciato.

Aren't they against MLS rules?

This West Seattle gem (no, not Ray's definition) was bought in 2005 for 712K. Sound views, a few blocks from the beach. Sinking: Jul 02, 2008 $769,000 Aug 13, 2008 $729,000 Sep 03, 2008 $699,000 West Seattle seems to be the in-ci…

You're right Tim, if you take the most restrictive definition of Seattle. Personally I like the Snohomish county comparison better! SnohoCo: 686,300 So she's really the Mayor of Everett, Lynnwood and Goldbar wrapped into a nice, tight packa…

A little more digging shows it was bought be an old Coug running back, and Vandal RB coach. I don't know how to interpret exactly what happened. Can anyone explain this series of deeds and quit claim deeds you can find by searching his name in the…

I might have, if I were ready to buy in June. It was bought last year for 789K, listed for 720K before auction in July as a short sale, then went on the block. So there was no equity, the bank should never have lent at 789K, and the bank is th…

We discussed this foreclosure in the comp-killer thread. Looks like someone snapped it up at auction for $531,251 and tossed it back on the market at $712,500. I wish the auction process were more amateur-friendly. I would have happily paid ove…

I don't have time to click 50 links. What meaty stuff has she done? The East Bumblefuk comment wasn't intended to suggest she's a hick, it was meant to deride the size, or lack thereof, of her constituency.

"Compare their records." She has no record. She voted for the bridge to nowhere before she voted against it, then kept the money. So because of that she's a "reformer". That's the meatiest thing I see out there. Please enlighten me as to al…

A BA in Journalism, an intelligent designer, a beauty queen, and a year and a half as a governor of a state which is, population-wise, equates to being the mayor of Everett. On the plus side, she can race a mean snow-mobile. If I were a Republ…

That house didn't make any sense to me last year. I was looking at it, and couldn't believe they were asking that for an unineresting house on a small lot on a busy street. Imagine my shock when it sold. The only thing I can think is fraud.

Most valuable tidbit of knowledge I've received on this board: The Lord is directing traffic somewhere on the road between Seattle and Algona.

Idaho's sales tax is only 5%, and the poor generally pay little or no income tax.
-
The B&O Taxes are a fraction of a penny. I'm not sure who considers that huge. If you are rich enough, you just lobby the legislature, threaten to leave the state, and they wave it anyway.

Here in progressive Washington, we harness the poor to pay our taxes so the rich don't have to! Most regressive taxes of the 50 states. When all Washington taxes are totaled up, the study found that: # The wealthiest one percent of Washington…

LOL! At least. I still can't quite figure out what shadow reveals are.

I don't know if this one's a appropriate here, but the audacious language is just too good to ignore: http://www.redfin.com/WA/Seattle/1201-Harvard-Ave-E-98102/home/17178307 Positioned at the elbow of the Harvard~Belmont Landmark District. …

Dude. My stereo goes to 11!

Congrats, Tim! It's probably a bit of the nature of the site that it's a bit difficult to get these folks to open their wallets, but good on ya for trying. Keep up the good work!

11 weeks late.

I think it is inflation adjusted.

Last week, they pulled all the FSBOs in from Zillow, but then the disappeared again pretty quickly. There must have been some mistake then. My guess is that this is their second swing and bringing in the Zillow data.

Well, at least the lawyers will still be able to buy houses in Seattle.

Yeah - it's amazing the detail they sometimes get into, regarding these deals. I'm afraid to click the link, because last time I visited a few months ago I lost an entire day! I wish we had a team that did this here. I figure you must need so…

If I had to state an opinion on the ethics of it, I would probably lean toward thinking if I borrowed money, It would be unethical to not make some attempt to pay it back. I know they are big companies, and big companies do many many unethical th…

It's murky for a number of reasons. I agree that if you are in a strictly non-recourse state (some are hybrids) and have a purchase loan that you told the truth on, then you can probably walk away without too much concern for anything but a trashed…
