CNNMoney.com published an article this morning called: Same 4-Bedroom house - wildly different prices. They provided a list of the most expensive and most affordable cities for a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house with 2,200 sq ft. Well, their headline rings true: different cities, WILDLY different prices:

  

So where does Arlington, VA fit in? Well that depends...

I love these articles.   The problem is that it really does not matter what a home in AZ or the one in DC costs.  It is all relative to the local market.  There is a different price in Park Ave. in Manhattan, and a home in Macon GA.  Location, location, location.

Jim - you're right. Hilarious comparison though of NYC and GA. Our market is much like that too. Arlington is different than D.C., which is different from .5 mile down the road to Alexandria. Real estate is local!
