I think I'm the only one looking for a way back...haha.

I lived there for almost 23 years though. My advantage is I can work for the company I work for now (based in MO) and take it with me to MI because I work out of home.

Well god dude you raised the bar to KansASS, try going to a real state and that urge will leave

I don't miss Detroit for a friggin second. But then again I have lived in Denver and Seattle since then.

Detroit itself is a hell hole, if I had two nickels to rub together I'd GTFO of there too.

It's not hard to believe. The county I live in, which borders the city of Detroit and it's county, is the 4th wealthiest in America. The 2nd richest city in America is located here.

Correct. City-data includes population inside the city limits.

Here is a list of metro areas by population:

It's interesting that they list San Diego and Tijuana together... AS IF!!!

OK so you are talking about Bloomfield Hills city, MI as being the 2nd richest city? The population there is 3,832 according to City-Data.. The average income is the second highest in the country, but for 3.8k people that isn't saying much and certainly isn't the richest city.

All fvcking houses lost value in the past year. You think yours is special?

All houses didn't, because mine didn't. I bought mine just last year, and before I signed on the dotted line, it appraised for $25,000 more than I was buying it for, based on what others were paying for houses in the neighborhood. I sold my previous house for $45,000 more than I bought it for 3 years prior.

The house across from mine in the subdivision has been in foreclosure and unoccupied for about 8 months. In September I saw some activity and sure enough a woman bought it. She seems nice enough.

So, tonight while I was neffing, I thought, "I wonder what she paid for it?" So, I looked it up.

In 2002 the house was bought new for $298,000 by the original owners.

I paid $335,000 for my house in July of 2005.

She got the house for $200,000. :Q:brokenheart:

How do you look up the pricing history of a house?
I would love to know what my neighbors got for theirs.

You can request records from your county property appraiser or if they have a website lookup the information via the properties address.
