The Vancouver Sun today featured the fact that ‘TV’s Dexter puts ultra-cool L.A. home on the market’, with no less than 20 photos of the house (samples above). This kind of celebrity-housing porn is usually designed to induce gasps of awe at both the property and the price tag. We’ll bet that only in Vancouver does the average citizen, when viewing pictures of this $2M-ask property, respond “Hmmm, not bad; pretty good deal!”.

You can see price histories on the property at redfin, but they aren’t oo revealing. Possible default a few years ago
Zillow estimates it was worth $2.8M in Jul 2007, and that it is worth $1.58M now.

(Wouldn’t it be great to have a Zillow-type resource for Vancouver properties?)
Epic.
Unlike Vancouver, Los Angeles is not a world-class city. It is totally off the Asian radar and has a tiny economy. Local universities, like UCLA and Cal State, are no match for our schools. And don’t get me started on the weather in southern California!
Oh wait. I temporarily morphed into a smug, poorly-traveled, delusional Vancouver RE bull.
But, land is at a premium in LA. The sea. The mountains. The smog above their heads. Hemmed right in there. Poor, claustrophobic folks. Nowhere to go…
…except the beaches with actual sand, waves, warm water…
…sigh.
Actually, that water is pretty freaking cold….. other than that, I agree completely…..weather is very, very pleasant. Even the smog isn’t that bad anymore…..
If it’s not too cold for a Rabbi… How cold could it be?
