A $2.7 million dollar home is being targeted at builders. Which means once the house is built demolished and a new one is built, asking price will be somewhere close to $4 million. This city sucks. Although the neighbourhood is pretty nice.

Fuck that. Divide that price by 5 (at least) and buy something much nicer where I live.

Essentially going to be doing that if/when I move out to the prairies. I can’t believe that people will pay this price.

Wow, that street is the very essence of McMansion Row. Huge, overwrought homes on teeny tiny lots. Excuse me for a second, I’m not feeling well...

It wasn’t always that way. Had a friend growing up who lived on that street. Main floor and basement, that’s it. Shame they tore it down and replaced it with a McMansion.
Seems like every house is being taken down, which is a damn shame.

Hey, money laundering “investors” need a place to hide and a spot to park their money. Hello Canada (it’s not much better in many areas of the west coast, and the same demographic is at work).

Well, if the current home does not add value to the lot, simple economics dictates that it is best to remove the home and build new. Just doing a Google street view, I can see a couple of fairly average quality Cape Cods, which are very out of place. They are probably candidates for a bulldozer in the near future, if housing prices remain at that level. It doesn’t make sense to me either, but that’s what I’ve been taught in appraiser school. Luckily, I don’t typically have that kind of situation in N.W. Ohio.
