Just as I suspected

The saga of the "mansion home" continues. The foreclosure sign just went up, and I checked the price online: $703K. Quite a come-down from the $1.15 million they were asking three years ago, when it was built. It's been empty all this time. (You can click the "mansion" tag below to see previous posts about this house.) I'll bet the neighbors will be happy to see someone living there.

  2. This was the way you described The Mansion in one of your earlier posts.
    "It's not hideous..."
    Such high praise!

  3. Oh, and something else: in my general neighborhood there is this monster house (see link below) that was listed at $2.4 mill in 2007 when it was built. Now? $1.6 million. Given how ugly it is, how out of place it is in this otherwise modest neighborhood, and how close it is to a major and busy road, they'll be lucky to get $1 mill.
