I live in upstate New York (Putnam county) and homes are selling like hot cakes. People are bidding on homes having only seen them on-line for thousands over asking price. The exodus is real.

I sopd a DC suburban home the forst weekend. I had 2. ids with 3 showings and the house was a mess. ecause it was being painted. Unfortunately the people who are moving out of the citie bitch about the gunshots from farms all around here and complain about fireworks around the 4th. and of course newyears. My kids go to bed at 8, why are they shooting off fireworks??

I live on Staten Island. Prices are maintaining and even going a little higher.

But then upstate NYers were always a little bit of wusses like the other four boroughs :)

And folks like you apologize like little girls for living where you do.

Maybe if NYers had balls the way they used to, things wouldn’t be this bad.

AND SO MANY HERE WANT NEW YORK AND NYC TO GO UNDER!!!

They get orgasms over it since they don’t get any from anything else in life.

And you just gave them one with your post :)

Well bad news, hicks..I like where I am and I’m staying.

See, I don’t cry like b.tch about where I live and I don’t smack it day and night either.

It’s sickening to read.

Especially when so many hillbilly states take more from the fed govt than they give in taxes with their 1870s salaries.

Yeah, but they pack their liberal values in the moving van too. Too bad there couldn’t be some sort of deed covenant to prevent that.

I live in southern NH. Houses are going within a couple days of being listed. Especially in coastal communities like Rye, NH on the Atlantic Ocean. The low end in Rye is $400K now for a fixer upper. Ocean front starts around $2.5 Million. Someone just listed one for $6.5 million.

However, even houses up north of the White Mountains are getting bought quickly because they are still under $300K with acreage.

Governor Sununu wrote about the influx of New Yorkers specifically into NH just recently. The mass exodus from NYC is affecting everywhere.

In addition the Governor spoke about the fact that about 90K people from NH work in Mass. However, for the last several months and potentially the rest of 2020 many of them are now working from their home in NH. Yet, they continue to pay MASS income tax of 5%. Why should this continue? This could be the next shoe to drop against NYC, MA and other states/cities where residents of other adjacent states are now working from home.

Same dynamic in Seattle. Markets insane not just outside Seattle but outside of King County.
