Quote:In 1973, my dad bought our first home in Jacksonville for $19,500, sold it in 1989 for $92,000. That buyer renovated it to be law offices, sold in 2003 for $475,000. It's on the market now for $550,000. 6,250 square foot lot in Riverside, built in 1915, easily convertible to residential as it still has the kitchen and bathrooms. The changes in real estate values over 43 years in that part of town amazes me.
