I will say that when we first moved in, the guy who lived there came over to introduce himself and to explain apologetically that the house was “like that when I got there, I’m not this weird”

Wait, but he chose to buy it. Doesn't that make him exactly that weird?

I found records of what people paid for houses in my neighborhood on microfiche back in the 90s. it was eye opening.

It was kinda weird when one of my employees just randomly brought up what I paid for my house a couple months after I bought it.

I’m sure you, like me, don’t cross-reference the purchase date with historical interest rates to determine their payment. Because that would be nosy.

Friend recently sold last Octoberish and just finally found a new house so naturally the entire time we joked we’d schedule showings while they were selling and then we’re going to drive up the price were they buy.

I want to be very clear, that when I look up my friend's new home it's not because I want to know how much they paid. It's because I want to look at the photos and tell them all the projects they need to do on the new house.
