How do you list a house for 700K when it has a Zillow estimate of 375K?

What bank will sign off on that loan?

I've seen it over and under estimate the value of properties by WIDE margins.

The only good reference is recent comparable sales.

Gas and weed is extremely high in Pittsburgh

When my dad and uncle came to VA for my graduation they damn near bought a pound to take back to Pittsburgh.

I romanticize the Midwest for its mountains and green. But then I’ve seen bare tree pics in the winter and it looks nightmarish.

Someone floated the idea of building.

I wonder if it’s cheaper.

At the time (early 90's) I think my parents outlay was about $175K. They got all the bells and whistles too.

https://www.zillow.com/pittsburgh-pa/home-values/
Is it the neighborhood? Looks like they are

Some median home values for comparison:

DC: $570k
LA: $550k
Cleveland: $53k (lol) https://www.zillow.com/cleveland-oh/home-values/

Philly is at $150k, and $750k here will get you something dope.

My old neighborhood (parents still own their home there), houses that sold for 90 to 180K 4 years ago now selling for 350 to 500K.

Really weighing the idea of buying our dream home vs buying a struggle house and fixing it up.
