Huh. I finally remembered my brother's address and decided to appease my long-lived curiosity over how valuable was his house. It's a big house and yard (1.3 acres) in a very nice suburb in southern NJ, and they had an Eagles player living down the street, so I always guessed it was pushing $500K. According to Zillow, it's only $278K. Now I feel better (I was worried about how they could afford an expensive place on their salaries, and yes, I am a nosy sister who doesn't have the nerve to ask them about their finances in person!).
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Last night, Zillow told me it thought I could get 300k for my house.
OTOH, it told me that mine is worth roughly half what the owner is asking (which in turn is 20K less than anything the same size in the 'hood).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Bon Voyage, Perkins!

Have a great trip, Perkins!!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Bye, Perkins!!!
Oddly Zillow says it is a 3 BR, 2 BA house, but it is a 3 BR, 1 BA.
Might the NOs have put a new bath in?

Clearly, Zillow's data is regionally variable. My town sucks - it hasn't even got up-to-date property tax records, never mind any sales within 5 years in my neighborhood. But its estimates in other places where I know the housing market a little seem sensible.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Have a great vacation, Perkins!!
