MM, are you in greenwich? We are living in upstate NY and thinking of moving to CT later. Could you message me to tell me which town you are in? I think it is very hard to get a new house like this with 1M, even with cash. In our town, it worth 2M+. Congrtulations!
If in NJ, the house would cost over 5M ! Don't think so. It would be around $1M for similar houses in NJ (9-10 rating county), within about 1 hour to downtown and 70-80 minutes to midtown NYC. It also depends on community and location. I like brick front better though.:) but overall, it's a nice house.

Not in Greenwich. It costs way much more in Greenwich. Our house is a special case that is called "deal of the century" by the agents. [此贴子已经被作者于2009-8-7 13:01:33编辑过]

Stamford? If my guess is right, am I getting a visit to your house? You are such a quick decision maker and so lucky to get it, as I know it's your second visit property. We can't make a decison of offer even after seeing tons properties for 3 months.

No. This is our dream house, so I knew it when I saw it.

Our experience may not be applied to most cases. The seller is desperate to sell, and he got two offers at 1.3M 6 months ago but the buyers couldn't get loan approved, so cash offer means a lot to him. There are many offers higher than listing price and the seller didn't go with them. I don't know how much higher the other offers are, I was prepared to give a much higher offer. It's just the best timing for me.
Since you are going to give a cash offer, you can try 15% if the listing price is reasonable. The sellers will be happy to negotiate with a cash buyer.

羡慕死人了
我看后院只有一个小deck. mm有没有打算做点landscaping? 接着开个装修贴吧.
我还觉得他有点没进取心
再看看，原来mm这个真是普通人买不起的豪宅啊，还好还好，我阿Q的开心的走了
和湾区比一下, 和和...
这个size的房子在南湾偏一点的地方, 比如说 evergreen 里面 silver creek 的 BelAir community, fully upgraded inside and out, with gorgeous mountain view, 前年可以卖 1.8 mil, 去年年中可以卖 1.65 mil, 今年 1.4 mil 左右就可以成交了...
如果摆在半岛的LAH, 根据地理位置和lot/view 的情况, 价格可以从2.5mil 到 3.5 mil不等, 当然上去的potential也很多. :)

估计去你家得带双溜冰鞋，这样走起来比较快又不累，呵呵！！
估计家装就得花不少银子吧，等着看MM搬进去以后的美图
不是德州，靠NYC的。
Honey 妹妹说对了，在Manhattan。还在纠结买什么家具呢。好喜欢ligne roset家的，就是贵了些，它家怎么从来不大Sale呢。现在连15%off deal都没了
好马要配好鞍啊！
你家实在upper east买的么？哪里有好多不错的condo。而且买的主要是医生，房市对他们的影响不大。
mm 能短我一下这是哪里吗？ Commute 到 Manhattan 方便吗？
不清楚楼主是在哪里，不过我有几个同事都是住在princeton那边。多数是或者全新或者基本新的房子（就是说几年前的全新房）。大概都是5千到6千尺。lot也很大。可以装游泳池。价格是小一百万。他们commute到华尔街地带的时间一个半小时吧（有时候会长点）。哪里据说学区巨好。

真的啊。可是我的新买了房子的同事家真的是要建游泳池的。5000多sq。也有可能他们比1.5小时远。因为我们聊commute的时候他们说他们比我那个小老板近不了多少什么的。所以有可能比你还要远一点。
我对郊区没啥概念，你别被我给弄糊涂了。
豪宅啊，小农的我想要多少家具才能让家里充实啊
我第一感觉就是想这个问题
我一看还想，这里华人买的房子都好大啊，Lg每次都说，我们将来肯定买不起大房子。说比如chicago，LA这种地方的不可能买起大房子
我还觉得他有点没进取心
再看看，原来mm这个真是普通人买不起的豪宅啊，还好还好，我阿Q的开心的走了
芝加哥50万买大房子还是很easy的事情。。。只要不是太挑
It's a mansion by all standards!
Congrats!
nj？康州？太豪了！
If in NJ, the house would cost over 5M !
普林斯顿那边吗？恭喜！
I think would be more than 1M if in Princeton area. Should be CT.

We are not princeton. Commute to NYC is good, less than 1 hour. A lot of CEO buy houses in our town.
I think would be more than 1M if in Princeton area. Should be CT.
This house is worth 1.3 M if you buy it with loan.
Congrtulations!

这些地方到NYC要多久？我记得从stamford到NYC快车都要40多分钟呢。
我是家庭主妇， 想到的比较无厘头的东西， 这房子买菜进出有点累， 距离遥远， 不过估计厨房就在车库那边吧， 不过可以老公抗重的。 这个做卫生也很头疼， 不过要是我买的起这么大的房子， 我会请人来帮忙做卫生的。。。我现在租个小小的2房的破公寓， 都觉的家务多， 虽然大部分老公干活。我实在不是个好主妇。
好美， 好美， dream house呀。
