FYI, the housing market in this area has gone nuts. My daughter just bought her first home. It's a 3 bed, 1 bath ranch built in 1962. 1400 sq ft. It needs some work, to say the least. Sale price...$395k, or about $45k over the asking price. Every house she looked at, there was a bidding war. And you had to have at least 20 percent down in cash or your offer landed in the trash.

And now my wife and I are getting cold calls from realtors with offers from people to buy our house -- sight unseen! It's not on the market, and we have no desire to sell. It's just crazy, and a far cry from a few years ago...

Yep housing market in certain areas are crazy. Here's one from my neighborhood.
