Strange on multiple levels

Quick...guess which Mission Viejo property is listed for $1.23 million:

Property A









Property B









You probably assumed this was a trick, and you were right. The answer, somehow, is Property A. Check out the listing description on this sucker: This Rebuilt Home Has 7 Bedrooms 7 Baths All In One Level. * * * CURRENTLY OPERATES AS A HIGH-END BOARD & CARE FACILITY * * * Large Kitchen With Granite Counter Tops, Stainless Steel Appliances. Large Dinning Room. Each Bedroom Equiped with Plasma TV, Intercom, Ceiling Fan and Designer Carpet. Travertine Flooring Including Bathrooms. Lake Mission Viejo Access Is $325/Year. Low Tax Rate. No Mello Roos.

Would you want to spend this much money to buy an outdated-looking home with some granite and stainless steel that currently is a senior care facility? Me neither. But, on the plus side, each room is "equipped" with a plasma TV.

Also check out the sales history: $665,000 in 2005, and then $1,030,000 in 2006. Think it went up another 17 percent in value since last October? The sellers seem to think so. Or, perhaps, they're just hoping a buyer who does materializes.
