With that much land? That house in close-in DC would be *spitballs* oh 3+M

I guess it isn't exactly close in. But still. Something not quite right there, beyond the yellow kitchen (which is not ideal but I could deal y'know)

Yerac is right. The high property taxes in NYS depress asking prices. Same thing in New Jersey I hear. Not so much in Connecticut (where I used to live).

yeah, like my old boss paid basically the same price for her mcmansion in scarsdale as i got for my super shitty trump sr rowhouse in brooklyn.
and tarrytown is cute but it is more village-y, not a lot going on. and the metro-north doesn't seem within walking distance.
― Yerac, Thursday, 14 May 2020 19:18 (six years ago)
i like the house and the yellow (and the potfiller above the stove!), but yeah i would not live in it. beautiful location, though. property taxes are the worst. i am so often thinking of what an expensive house i could live in in another county just because i'd be paying less than a third of the taxes i pay now.

Maybe those of us who like it can pool our money and all live in it together? Great deal like that won't last!

nooo, let's pool money for one of those palm springs mcm motels. there will be at least 10 rooms and a pool.

Still hoping we get the little Hastings house we put an offer on. Waiting on this dumb shit with the building inspector and the seller's contractor.

The listing style of that Fun & Adventure house, constantly zooming out on each photo, could not be more annoying
Island house - well, at least you'd be safely quarantined there...

Wasn't until it was animated that I noticed the patio furniture way up in the background by the house. Nice touch.

the filters these photographers use for real estate photography are out of control
― Spottie, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 17:32 (six years ago)
they layer a lot.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 18:02 (six years ago)
it's HDR, right?
― Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:01 (six years ago)
when the photographer who worked for c0c0r4n came to take pics of my place she said they take multiple frames of the same shot and then layer them all to get that saturation.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:36 (six years ago)
maybe that was just her method? but it seems that certain brokers have the same style/color on their sites for all the listings.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:37 (six years ago)
yah its mostly just extreme HDR but they do some other tricks too
― Spottie, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:45 (six years ago)
oh wait i had to look up hdr. for some reason i thought it was a resolution thing.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:45 (six years ago)

I could imagine living on the minecraft island house but not the Versaille hotel. At least not sleeping there, and definitely not taking LSD.
