House of the Day: 93 2nd Street
We’re surprised the listing for 93 2nd Street didn’t include something along the lines of “Own your own house for the price of a condo!” The 1,620-square-foot mini-house is a charmer for sure and for a couple or small family this really could be a nice alternative to a condo.

We’re surprised the listing for 93 2nd Street didn’t include something along the lines of “Own your own house for the price of a condo!” The 1,620-square-foot mini-house is a charmer for sure and for a couple or small family this really could be a nice alternative to a condo. The house, which traded for $975,000 three years ago, is now asking $1,125,000. We could see it getting pretty close to that. What do you think?

Ed: We’re taking a new price voting feature for a test run on this post. The idea is to get the group to predict what the house will sell for. In a few months, we’ll be able to start to look back and see how close we came as a group! It will also provide some pretty immediate feedback to sellers on whether they’re in the right ballpark.
Digging the widget.
House is adorable (adorable connotes small) with nice finishes.
The What makes me laugh. Always has.
I’m not sure where you are finding a 1500 sf condo in these areas for 799K. Especially when you factor in that most of said condos would be an additional $750-1300 a month maintenance that this house does not have. Nor a backyard, which for me would be the #1 reason for buying a small house over a condo.
It would be interesting if appraisals could be linked to a login name, and then one could see how accurate a given poster’s appraisals were over time. Marketwatch has a similar feature based on predicting stock moves.
I like the widget – it’s fun and we can get a group analysis on a price – am just hoping though you can edit if someone does something silly like put in $1 or 10 billion….
Nice widget! I like it. So many of the comments are related to price, it’s good to have a place to gather all these “guesspraisals”, and it will be even better to look back in 6 months.
FWIW, I would bet $799,000 is the best they’ll do for such a small place. At that price, people can look at it as the condo alternative it’s meant to be.
“What do you think of the price widget?”
It sucks like you…

Widget is a great idea, but I would hide the prior bids until after you have inputted your own appraisal (so as not to be colored by prior responses).
Yeah, now I know. Thanks!
