What's even more amazing is the boom in prices in the bay area.

Case in point: we looked at house in Castro Valley on Judy Street. 3 bd 2 ba. 1300-1400 sq ft. built 1950-55 (can't remember exactly)


it was listed as $449,500

the current owners bought it in 1999 for around $225 -250k



HOLY GUACAMOLE!
