Someone wanted to know what kind of buyers pay $1 million for a lousy post -war box on a postage stamp... well that would be us. While we both understand that we could live in Olathe , Kansas or somewhere off of U .S. 1 for less than a quarter of what we pay here, our jobs, families and friends are located in Los Angeles and here is where we are staying until our jobs move elsewhere. We both purchased homes we loved in our single years and now that we are married with kids, those homes in lousy school districts and "transitional" neighborhoods with no parking and endless parties are not exactly the place for us.So my house is currently in escrow for what feels like the 170 th day for $50,000 less than asking price and the ten of us -- my husband,three children, one exchange student and four cats -- are crammed into one of those 3 bedroom 1 bath post-war boxes in Culver City that everyone seems to love.We are seeking a home within a 30 minute commute of Santa Monica ...
