What I’d tell you about Mountain View
Comps must match the housing type. Sharing a ZIP is not enough. An Eichler and a ranch on the same street are two different markets.
Eichlers have their own buyer, who pays a premium for originality and penalizes a bad remodel. If you own one, talk to me before you change anything.
Condo and townhome buyers here are rate-sensitive in a way single-family buyers are not. HOA dues belong in the conversation from day one.
