They’re not building any more land!
But they are leaving California to more affordable places :)
Over $500k for that? Laughable bubble esque pricing for that near 100yr old small home with no AC. It says pending so maybe they found a sucker for their wishing price but I wouldn't be surprised if it falls through.
I'm not in the market for a house, I know better. Just showin' ya what's going on in my town :)
Also, it's one house away from the 110 overpass, so fwy noise and pollution.

But is encompassed by wonderful sunny weather!

Trap has been set.
Trap? You think the realor is trying to give the impression of the house being "desireable" or something? "oooh it almost went that time but the deal fell through BUY NOW BEFORE ITS TOO LATE"

Trust me, it only needs one stupid person to sink his fortune, after all it is So. Pasadena. Someone will pay 500K thinking that they brought the seller down from 579K.

more affordable means a really cold winter to Cali folks.

Or living amongst rednecks and Tea Partiers!
It will sell not because it’s in CA or great weather so much, but it’s in one of a few nice areas short commute to LA. If you have to live in LA are " ", have the money and kids you’re really limited and its something that is only getting worse. I would think it was outrageous if I was looking at this listing without living here but it’s just how it is now. There is so much money in South Pasadena and San Marino that I don’t ever see it changing.
This small overpriced house is exactly the reason I do not live anywhere near LA, in spite of the weather - of course, being retired helps!

True dat. Only wish I had some of it ;-)
This one gives you some idea what prices were before the bubble. I see that some topped at $500K and higher.
