My realtor sent me some listings to glance over today. As usual, they were all bank-owned (foreclosed) properties. It’s pretty sad when there are 9 half-a-million dollar bank-owned properties within a few blocks of each other. No wonder the RE and the CDO-paper-holding-stock market are hurting.

But this is kinda funny:

Nice suburbia sprawl, with 6 of the 9 bank-owned properties.

Zoom in a little:

Oh look at all the cookie cutter homes.

Zoom in a little more:

Yes, those cookie cutter suburbia homes essentially used to be a corn field. Couldn’t have been too long ago either as those tiles are higher resolution than the other ones, but clearly a few years older.

Amusing to me anyway.
