Yup. I live in a gateway city in Mass, and this 3 floor tenement down the block from me is for sale once again. I am sure some work was done on it to improve it's value during this time, but no matter how much they did to improve it, it's still outrageous how much it's gone up in a relatively short period of time. Check out this sales history:

1999 $155,000
2015 $136,000
(clearly shows signs of being in need of a lot of work, that's fine, but now the fun begins...)
2017 $305,000
2019 $390,000
2021 $560,000

Now it's listed for sale for $699,000. Not sure about the rest of you, but my current salary compared to 2015 isn't that much different. But these home prices sure are!
