<p>I have not been to Suunyvale for a long time. I have never thought of Sunnyvale as a place of million dollar homes</p>
<p>A million might not even get you an apartment in Manhattan: “If you look at overall market statistics, it can seem that condos cost as much as 40 percent more than co-ops: in the third quarter of 2012, the average price of a condo in Manhattan was $1.766 million, compared with $1.216 million for a co-op.”</p>
<p>From an article in the NY Times <a href=“Getting Started – Choosing Between a Co-op and a Condo - The New York Times”>Getting Started – Choosing Between a Co-op and a Condo - The New York Times;
<p>I remember years ago–I think back in the 80s–when Bob Villa was still hosting This Old House, he aired a tour of the Trump Tower with Ivana, when she was still married to Donald. </p>
<p>Bob walks through one apartment and says to Ivana, “This must go for a million dollars.”</p>
<p>And Ivana responded, “Try a million per room.”</p>

<p>I look at the homes near Silicon Valley, and they would sell for under $200,000 around here. The worm is definitely going to be in for nasty shock.</p>
<p>dstark, yup! It has gotten that expensive. Six-figure down payments are not in my universe (or theirs).</p>
<p>CountingDown, amazing… And not necessarily in a good way.</p>
<p>In Atlanta, pretty much anything you want. Keep in mind that you can get really nice houses in most of these areas for far less than a million bucks. (We don’t do square footage in metro Atlanta as the result of some law suit forever ago.)</p>

<p>If you are lucky to be “awarded” (a broker used that word) the apartment, the down payment could be 50% or all cash. If you are financing, they want to see 2+ years housing payment in your liquidity accts.</p>

<p>Yes, CountingDown, those are ridiculous. If you are going to pay a million dollars for a house in California, it should at least LOOK like a California house and have a pool…not look like a suburban midwestern ranch. But apparently my dreams are not possible in that part of the state.</p>
<p>lastminutemom, those are really nice houses for the money (compared to elsewhere in the country)! Way too big for my taste but they are beautiful, especially the Buckhead one.</p>

<p>I only liked the Buckhead one. Better craftsmanship it seemed, and none of those two story rooms-those houses had so much white paint, and no sense of coziness, it would drive me nuts. But you’ll see a lot of that also in Texas.</p>
