I live in an 1100sqft condo in LA. It has $600/mo HOA fees that I don't have to pay.

My landlord bought it for $390k in 2007. It's currently worth about $350k.

I bought it a little over 6 months ago between Chapel Hill and Durham, NC. I think I'll be lucky if I break even on it when I sell 3 years from now, but my wife loves it, I love it. It's not an "investment", it's where I live.

I'd much rather live beside a "waterfall" in WA but till then, this will do.

I am instantly jealous of your kitchen.

I thought you might be :)

Definitely the selling point of the home. I love, love, love that stove. It makes cooking even more enjoyable when you have good equipment. Now there's no one but me to blame if a dish sucks.
