For the second one, they used to build stuff about like that in our old neighborhood. It was a neighborhood in Houston that was built in the 20's mostly on ~5000-6000sqft lots. Due to the location, when someone sells one of the old homes, they are usually sold for lot value (~500k), the home is razed, and 2-4 new "town homes" are built that cost anywhere from $550k - $1.25mil.

4 narrow homes on one larger lot. These places are essentially one room wide.


One of the few remaining original homes. THis is where the crazy cat lady lives. In the summer, you can smell the cat pee from across the street at times.


On the left, attached townhomes, this took forever to build and sell. On the right are two new homes since we left the neighborhood 2 years ago. They are currently advertised at 624k.


for the neighborhood, these were really cheap, I think they were advertised as ~650k new.


3 homes on one corner lot. The home on the corner was advertised at 1.25 or 1.29mill. The others were advertised for 850k each, I think. Sizes are 3600+sqft and 4200+sqft for the corner. The first owners of the corner lot were there less than a year. It was a young single couple. They had matching Range Rovers, and he had a GT3RS. He then bought a Mercedes GT R and kept the Porsche. The missus and I think maybe they inherited money or something.
