Cohousing-L Mailing List: RE: Fwd: Northern California Town for Sale...No, Really

[Greg Dunn (MyLists]

Hi Joani.

I was thinking about this town half the night last night. What a hoot,
to buy a town and see what you could make of it!

The place doesn't look half bad from the pictures.  In the Chronicle
story the owner was quoted as saying the place needed someone to put
$200-250K into it to fix the septic systems and other things that need
attention. That estimate's probably on the low side (given it came from
the seller), but still $1.8M + let's say .5M = $2.3M for a functioning
town in the Sierra foothills doesn't seem that bad. There are plenty of
people within 2 miles of where I live whose houses go for more than
that. Too bad I'm not one of them, or I could have cashed out. 8-)
