Here's a recently sold in the Weymouth development that everyone was debating last week as to whether or not it's considered a 'new' neighborhood. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/5...52209042_zpid/



Matrix, You may not be happy to know that I did just look up the record b/c I was curious if this development is attracting cash buyers or not. Looks like cash buyers haven't infiltrated Weymouth yet....$896K mortgage on a $1,054,446 sales price....so 15% down.

Still doesn't mean housing should cost what it does up here

Agree and that's why I periodically checkout the records to get a pulse on the market. The fact that folks aren't putting at least 20% down tells me prices are so cuckoo they're stretching it just to be able to do 15% and sometimes I even see as little as 5% down on $800K+ homes. Sad state of affairs...

I don't care if you look up records. I just think it's funny that you're worried about nosy neighbors while being nosy.

Yes, they do it because they are nosy.

Who is really sure about anything? At best we take educated guesses, make assumptions, or simply believe.

The reality is there are many reasons why people may need to or want to review these records, even though you seem to believe it's just because they are nosy.

I still am baffled that you don't think offering 50k to 100k or more has anything to do with anything. To some people that's literally everything. Stay in your bubble.

I think it's probably pretty common to look up someone's house these days. I do it all the time. Now I personally don't go as far to look at their mortgage payment info lol.

We've already discussed our ideas as the quote is from over a week ago, I won't repeat it here.
