Do real estate agents sell new houses? I know it's a pretty lame question, but I'm on the outside of the real estate game.

Because I read in the journal today that new home construction was at a record high and the median value of a new home was over 200k (much higher than the median value of an existing home).

bloodyfart · 05-26-2005, 06:59 PM

the sell or rent any type of structure or land, including new and old houses, commercial sites, farm land, warehouses, etc....

housing start ups have been rising, but that will end soon.

Ironic Mustache · 05-26-2005, 07:20 PM

200k is such a ridiculous number to hear as being "much higher thatn the median value" for where I live. I'm not even in a super expensive place to live, yet the average house in Sacramento sells for $350k. You can't really find anything ATT ALL for 200k no matter what the area.

MAGICLIT · 05-26-2005, 07:24 PM

Sacramento is shitty, who would buy a $350K house there anyway?

Ironic Mustache · 05-26-2005, 07:26 PM

$350k isn't even a nice house by any means either. If you're not up over 450-500, you're white trash or in the ghetto.

bloodyfart · 05-26-2005, 07:34 PM

in la, if your house is under 900k, and you are in the city limits, then your house is shit

MAGICLIT · 05-26-2005, 07:42 PM

Damn, vegas fucking rules, you list a house with 5 bedrooms 3 bathrooms for $825K and in the same are, not 5 minutes away list a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house for $360K.

Ha, I hear you there, the problem is that the majority of people in the US live in shit.

It's not hard to find a house in Gary, IN (ghettoist place on the plannet) for 30k, but finding one that doesn't get hit by bullets on a weekly basis... ehhhh good luck.

Edit:

People also are always amazed when they actually look at the numbers, because you see nice houses, and they stick in your mind, but you tend to blow off the large chunk less expensive housing.

From the 2000 Census:

Median House Values

Sacramento: 128,800

Los Angeles: 221,600

Las Vegas: 137,300

A few things to know first though:
These numbers are from in the city limits, which counts only 500k people in Las Vegas, 400k people in Sacramento, and 3.6m in LA. Subburbs are not counted, but by definition 'median' is the middle value, so they are still quite a bit lower than what you percieve.

How about this beauty for $9,500.

Edit: I think it's only fair that whoever sells this house should put up a disclaimer: if you buy this house you run the risk of being shot by a bunch of crazy [insert racial slang] in a gang shootout

Real Estate in California in the last 5 years when through the fucking roof though too... The average loan for a house in Sacramento is actually accurate at 350,000 now.
