Inside Real Estate CEO Joe Skousen confirmed the layoffs in an email to Inman, saying the cuts are the result of overlapping positions following the acquisition, which was first announced on Friday.

Tenants in Florida claim the company oversaw a "cartel" that unfairly drove up the cost of rent in markets across the Sunshine State. The claim comes on the heels of a similar suit in California.

After a tightly contested Senate race, Raphael Warnock prevailed. His next stop? A new home in Washington, DC, for which he laid out $1,149,000.

Warnock made history in 2020 when he became the first Black senator from Georgia, doing so in a special election that went to a runoff. He repeated the feat in 2022, beating Herschel Walker in another runoff and securing a full six-year term in Congress.

His new capital digs are modest by some standards but beautifully renovated. The 1,780-square-foot townhome includes four bedrooms and 3.5 baths, arranged across about 1,780 square feet.

The historic row house was built in 1911.

Tough financial times call for creative financing. Historically high mortgage rates and a cooling housing market have caused buyers and sellers to look for novel ways to stretch their dollar and seal a deal.

Buyers, scared by lofty mortgage rates that threaten to add hundreds of dollars to their monthly housing bill, are seeking out mortgage buy-downs as a way to trim some of that excess. Sellers, desperate to unload homes, are often willing to help out.

Simply put, a mortgage rate buy-down is upfront money, often paid by the home seller (builders and lenders can also front the cost), to “buy down” the interest rate on the buyer’s loan for a period of time. This temporarily eases a buyer’s mortgage woes.

But just how practical are mortgage buy-downs for homebuyers?

For those navigating America’s residential real estate market, it’s lately felt a bit like an out-of-control cargo train, ever threatening to veer off the tracks—stomach-churning price accelerations followed by interest rate hikes slamming the brakes. It’s little wonder that just about everyone seems to be searching for clues on where housing sales are going this year. But it’s not a one-size-fits-all market. Different kinds of homes—and the diverse people buying and selling them—have been affected in significantly different ways, especially when it comes to prices.

In fact, a deep dive into what’s going on with two of the nation’s significantly iconic, bellwether housing categories—representing opposing ends of the price spectrum—might provide the clearest indications of what to expect for 2023 and beyond.

On one end are starter homes, traditionally smaller and more affordable, geared toward first-time homebuyers; on the other, luxury homes, the spacious mansions with every amenity imaginable marketed to the wealthy. Each market has faced its own highs, lows, and distinct challenges.

And their current price trajectories might come as a surprise.

Let’s face it: Standing in line to use the only toilet in your own house is never fun. So when your family outgrows a small space or you’re just craving more room to stretch your legs, it may mean it’s time to shell out to build a home addition.

But what are the true costs of adding rooms to your existing home?

We have the numbers on whatever type of space you want to build. See the full range of prices you’ll pay to add to build out a bathroom, bedroom, or other home additions, plus related expenses you should expect along the way.

The costs

While the price tag on home additions varies from state to state, one good rule of thumb is to expect to pay around $100 per square foot, says Scott Browder

What a difference a few months makes.

Since the implosion and bankruptcy filing of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX in November, its founder Sam Bankman-Fried has experienced some dramatic life changes—as have those closest to him.

A prime example? The listing of a townhouse in Washington, DC, that was purchased in April 2022 by Guardians Against Pandemics, a nonprofit group partly funded by Bankman-Fried and run by his brother, Gabe. The asking price is $3,289,000—the exact sum that was paid for the place less than a year ago.

The posh 4,100-square-foot home was reportedly purchased to serve as a DC base for the FTX crew to wine and dine the political elite. But now it’s time to cut losses, which is why the four-bedroom, 4.5-bath brick home—just a stone’s throw from the U.S. Capitol—is up for grabs.

If your next life chapter includes making some serious cheese, the owners of Samish Bay Cheese have the perfect opportunity for you.

This certified-organic creamery in Bow, WA, includes a cow herd, a retail shop, a contract with an organic-milk supplier, plus cheese-making equipment. And it can all be yours for $5.9 million.

Owners Roger and Suzanne Wechsler are retiring but will stay on to help a new owner get started, says listing agent Kristal Grimstead, of Compass Bellingham.

Samish Bay’s current portfolio includes 12 fresh cheeses and five aged varieties, along with whole-milk and Greek yogurt offerings. Folks drawn to the inner workings of curds and whey can reap what the Wechslers have already built.

Every homeowner has some project to tackle. When you own a home, there’s always seemingly something that needs fixing, zhuzhing, or general improvement.
