Maybe it's because I'm a bit of a photography nut, but these pictures are awful. They tell a story you don't want to tell about the house. Then again, I don't understand why so many realtors like to WRITE IN ALL CAPS to scream at buyers either. I never understood the logic behind posting bad pictures for a property.

Finally a housing blog near the San Gabriel Valley which is where I reside. Keep up the good work.

The grass is also overgrown compared to the picture above with the house looking almost unlivable (at least from the outside).

A quick look at the property records shows a zoning of "LA ARR1YY". I'm unfamiliar as to the interpretation of this code but I'll scan through the city's Municipal Code on Monday to see if it reveals anything. llking,

I'm assuming the seller is hoping to find a delusional private builder who may want to tear the 1200 sqft structure down and put up a mansion. The fact that the property is cornering Santa Anita Ave (a high traffic street) does not help the price at all. The seller's original $408k down is in cold water.

People got greedy during the boom, but these folks are just down right out of their minds. This is greed to the nth degree. It’s amazing that this house is even listed at that asking price.

How can the person selling this home look ANYONE in the eye when sputtering out the price of this home and not feel like a complete shuckster! Ditto the realtor. This is ridiculous!
