Yeah looking at it more carefully Ron made a good choice of real estate as the last listed sale price was 300k. I'd bet when he bought it it was listed for more than that, however I'd also wager it was worth less than the current 400k which the estimates seem to agree on. Also the rambler aspect is a big deal, especially in any kind of growing real estate market. When my parents retired and moved they spent a year and a half looking for a house that a) wasn't a piece of shit and b) was a rambler, and ultimately still had to compromise on b).Ron's place is valued at $400k according to trulia. 2000 Sq ft, 8000sq ft lot, 3 bed 3 bath, 2 car garage, mother-in-law suite.
Never underestimate the value of a well remodeled rambler. They are family houses you can grow old in. They don't build them like that anymore.
Vic's place is for the corporate middle management class.
I'm not shocked Vic picked a McMansion though, McMansions aren't exactly bad houses, just very samey, and more importantly typically very available, which figures in when you consider he was likely looking for a place fast and didn't have a fairly large amount of time piddle around looking.
That said allegedly $350 in HOA fees WHEW LAD
