Tax bill will slash by half the number of homeowners using the mortgage deduction

MP is an expensive place, so yes. MP has better homes than PA, and lots tend to be a bit larger.

The 4.7 price point for University Heights is the highest I have seen. Even the revised 4.5 is high. That’s in addition to the 1,670/sf figure. The same developer completed 2171 Gordon and that sold for 3.95 with 2638 sf in October/November. Comps show that on a typical lot in this neighborhood a new build with two floors can bring 4. A three story build maybe 4.25. Those figures are from last year.

This house also has some weird curb aesthetic.

Btw University is in a different neighborhood. They don’t comp particularly well.
