What 3 million will get you in my hood.

Or: "Why bigger rooms does not equal better taste."





"SUPERB LOCATION AND PRIVATE SETTING! THIS SPACIOUS HOME WAS BUILT IN 1997. IT OFFERS PRIVACY AND SERENITY BY OVERLOOKING THE U.S. AMBASSADOR'S RESIDENCE WITH ITS PARK-LIKE GROUNDS. THIS EXTENSIVE HOME HAS 7 BEDROOMS, 7 FIREPLACES, AND HARDWOOD FLOORS THROUGHOUT. PRIVATE POOL & GARDENS."

Lord, could someone also please explain to real estate agents that typing in all caps is off-putting. If this house is so great you shouldn't need to shout it from the roof tops honey. Oxymoron case-in-point: "SERENITY" translates roughly into RELAX!!!! RELAX RIGHT NOW!!! Yikes.
