Some of the house we saw this weekend were in lower 600K range and looked like shit. They were meant to be torn down an dbuild new one which brings the whole cost to over a mil. Shoot, I can not build a house I want with practical method and thinking here. I got to find a some kind of land which no one want and be creative here. I was flipping through DWELL June 2008 on p.86 there was a nice house in SF. May be I have to become independent to build something like that....

Got to think differntly.
