Out of curiosity...

I got an estimate for how much the house is worth today.

The estimate I received from Zillow a couple of months ago left me feeling a bit discouraged. So, I was glad to see that the estimate from Prudential Northwest Realty was more in line with what I had originally thought based on appreciation rates of the area. I still don’t know how accurate the estimate is, as there was a $400,000 difference between the minimum and maximum value of similar properties in my neighborhood. But then again, I'm between Seward Park and the worst part of Rainier Valley.

It’s rather moot anyway. I’m committed to keeping the house for as long as I can, even while I’m in school and after I graduate. Somehow I will find a way. For starters, I could sell off Royce's rabbits...

Only 2 murders, 18 rapes, and 117 robberies in January. I don't think that's that much--yes, the rapes are up, but robberies are down 12.6% from 2005!

Hey, are you making fun of my neighborhood? I guess it’s a good thing that I’m taking Kung Fu, no? As for the robberies, there’s not much that I care all that much about--except for maybe the plants on my front porch. Whoever tries to steal those should watch out. :)
