s/o Home buying ('nother challenge)

[louietunes]

Here's one we haven't done for a while. Hit up your local realtor website and post a link to the most expensive property in you metro.

How big of an area are we considering "local"?

$11,725,000 (looks like you get your own cave too!)

$10.5 Mil


GLW, I took all of KC, so I'd say anywhere you still consider to be "home". I don't feel like I've left home unless I leave the entire metro, burbs and all.

$8.5 mil. For a townhome. Geesh.

I would think there would have been a more expensive house listing, but this was the top one that came up when I did a fairly open search:

search.har.com/engine/18-Maymont-Way-The-Woodlands-TX-77382_HAR89808225.htm

almost $4 million


EDIT, I checked the other site GLW's posting was on and it gave me this listing for $13,950,000 :

That's beautiful! So many of the uber expensive mansions are so boring inside. Beige, beige, white, tile, zzzzzz.

It comes with a possible Bat Cave? WANT
Does all that wine in the cellar change hands with the deed?

Um...I'll take one of these, please.

Some of the other ones...ya think with all that money these people could have bought some taste? The views and the land are all spectacular, though.

Along with a bazillion picnic tables and a 7 car garage. That's taking a SFH to the limit.
