How is the house selling season going?

<p>The Los Altos Hills house was only $100 million. The buyer apparently isn’t going to live there, just use it for entertaining.</p>

<p>How does one get on the guest list? :)</p>

803

<p>^^You need to speak Russian![ One of the Russian gazzilionanaires bought it.]</p>

804

<p>^^^vball, the news says “Estimated”, they really did not know the exact amount and it is NOT recorded either. My info was leaked from First America, and I intentionally muddled the exact amount.</p>

<p>BTW, the seller is a Chinese.</p>

805

<p>Ya gavaru parusski (translation- I speak Russian)</p>

806

<p>jym, my D is currently learning Russian from her BF.</p>

<p>And for the rest of you, there is a town pathway that can look beside that house (A requirement for building it). However, there are ARMED guards posted at various corners of the estate. just FYI…</p>

807

<p>Wow, congrats, eso!! I confess my russki yazeek is very rusty. Probably couldn’t do more than curse, order a vodka and toast to the bartender’s (or armed guards’) good health (“na zdraovyeh”) at this point.</p>

808

<p>

</p>

<p>Well, geez, jym, what else do you need to say during a cold Russian winter? That pretty much covers it.</p>

809

<p>

“Nichevo” (that means “nothing”) :)</p>

810

<p>Jym: Which grandparent spoke Russian?</p>

811

<p>None. I studied it in High School. Our teacher won the national teacher of the year award a year or so after we graduated. He was incredible. Great guy.</p>

812

<p>jym, next time you come out to Calif we can go by the mansion and try out your Russki!</p>

813

<p>Da!!!</p>

<p>DS was out there this weekend!</p>

814

<p>He brought some glorious Indian summer weather with him!</p>

815

<p>Artloversplus…I don’t know that area…</p>

<p>Pretty nice house…a little more than I can afford…and I don’t need a place quite that big. Lol</p>

816

<p>menlo-
He sent a gorgeous photo from Angel Island State Park</p>

817

<p>oops, mistype above-- to your health! Na zdarovyeh! (Hope that attempt at translation sorta works)</p>

818

<p>Well, the oil tank test had to be postponed because… the tank was too full!! They have to get some sort of pressure reading and the company just filled it a few weeks ago. Well, IMO, if its full then there must be no leaks, right?? :D</p>

<p>Here’s a weird coincidence. The prospective buyers (husband/wife) have the same initials as my brother and I. That is karma…</p>

819

<p>Karma, definitely karma!!! I just knocked on every leg of my kitchen table for you, jym (the tabletop is granite, so no help from knocking on it).</p>

820

<p>jym, by the time you sell the house, all the doors and table legs will be knocked out aound the usa… and much karma will be left on the table…:)</p>
