What a lovely house. I especially like the wooden floors. The 1-bath aspect seems less fun, but at that price I expect one could put another bathroom in, assuming there aren't other problems with the place.
That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

Sigh. I can't help but think that the thing that's wrong isn't the price of *that* house. It's the price of housing in LA (or NY or Seattle or SF etc) that's out of whack.

Nice house ... at that price, in DC, you might be able to get a parking space.

I could see a house like that going for that price in Kansas City, but only if was located in the right, or wrong depending on your perspective, place.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Wow. That's about half what you'd get for a house like that here, and Northeast Arkansas isn't exactly the land of skyrocketing housing costs.
I wonder what the horrible downside is that's making the owners sell it for a song ? Crumbling foundation or rotted timbers might be a dealbreaker, but psychotic former occupant about to be paroled might be worth taking a chance on...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

United to bring call-center jobs back from India
United Airlines plans to stop using an Indian call center to field passenger complaints about in-flight service or other travel issues and will hire 165 customer relations agents in Chicago and Hawaii to handle those duties.
Chicago-based United told its employees Tuesday that as of the end of April, customers who wish to share complaints or praise about a flight will have to do so via email or letter. The nation's No. 3 airline plans to turn off a customer relations phone number.
However, United's call centers will still handle reservations, queries about lost luggage and refunds, said United spokeswoman Robin Urbanski.
