Default Home sales in Maine, you have got to be kidding

Marcel is this normal? Or is it outrageous? On that size lot for that size home here you would pay under 100,000. The neighborhood might not be great but you would only be a 12 mile drive to the beach-ocean, atlantic I mean.

For me here, it is outrageous and ridiculous, even in the Portlan Area of the State.

I am about to put a big swimming pool in front of my house with a background drop of the ocean view. ha. ha.

My second inspect yesterday for a Ca. investor on a property larger than this one listed at $29,900 worth about $15,000 that is why folks from Ca. are leaving that area like rats from a burning barn and buying property here. My first inspection yesterday was another client from Ca. Gotta Luv it.
