It’s literally a two-story, five-bedroom house that is not a mansion—it’s a regular-ass house. A mansion typically has at least 5 to 10+ bedrooms and a comparable number of bathrooms, usually spanning over 8,000 square feet.

You know a lot of regular houses with a full size tennis court and pool?

It's a luxury home, 5 bedrooms sure but it's also a huge property in an area where property value is insane.
It also has a pool, hot tub, and tennis court with some yard left over. It's not a boilerplate, built from catalog "McMansion" that are common in the US, but it's bigger than most of those homes tend to be.
It's a large luxury home, we call those mansions.
It's just a little guy.

Because most people are poor, poorly educated and have no concept of scale.
For 90% of humans on earth, it is so far above experience, it is practically a mansion. For another 5% the "prestige" is sufficient to bridge the credibility gap. The remainder don't play GTA V or talk shit on Lemmy.

Have you looked at median incomes in the US lately?

About 44% of new construction homes over the past 20 years have had 4+ bedrooms. The American Housing Survey uses categories rather than numbers, so 4 and 5+ is the most granular we can get.
It’s a significant problem in the housing market, often called the “missing middle”, where we don’t have enough starter homes for young/new buyers to get on the housing ladder. We are only building large homes used by families who already have a lot of equity

Wasn't this exact question posted somewhere on Lemmy last week?
paraphrand@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 173d
Yes. This is either a bot farming account history, or someone reposting for internet attention/points.
Edit: based on their post history, I’m not sure what to think now.

Their other post was taken down a few days ago. You can see the title in OP's modlog.
alzymologist@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 173d
Yes, in different channel; the OP just should start using "cross-post" button.
I wish there was an aggregator of comments from all cross-posted instances of a post. Can't wait till Lemmy 1.0 with plugins thing.

I wish there was a way to aggregate communities across all instances, where the community name is identical, rather than having to go out and seek each and every community on a per-instance basis.
alzymologist@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 173d
well at least the search feature gives you a list of these communities; fortunately, it's usually short (unless you search for "memes") and you could realistically just join all (like I do)

Piefed has that.

Where did you get from?

Not really an answer, but the definition of a ‘regular-ass house’ is very different in the UK/EU compared to the US. American suburban homes are huge.

You're on Lemmy, we're all filthy socialists who have no money. You need to at least try and hide the fact that you're rich and can't relate to people who don't have money for even two bedrooms and for whom anything more is pure luxury and who avoid buying ANY bottled water. (One might think you'd know this by now but one would think a lot of things and you've consistently refuted any such assumptions.)

Not all leftists/socialists are broke
Lumidaub@feddit.org · 2 pts · 173d
Lies. Possessing even one unit of your local currency instantly makes you a capitalist and brainwashes your mind to blindly believe only the Western mainstream media.
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 172d
It depends on your definition of "broke"... I may not be what the Brits call, "skint," but I'm also not able to afford to own a home.
Lumidaub@feddit.org · 2 pts · 171d
Just... Just so we're, uh, on the same page: I'm joking.

Oh no, I'm an evil capitalist now. Guess I need to start building my meth empire... 🤷♂️

No way around it. You have all my sympathies. We'll go light a candle on your behalf at the Temple of Marx in Trier.

Why didn't you include the second sentence in the bit you ripped from wiki?
Xanthrax@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 173d
It's probably worth about 1-15m. It's about location, sadly.
LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 173d
It would have been at the high end of that cost. It's a gated yard with a pool/hot tub and a tennis court in the back yard in Beverly Hills.
On a side note there was originally supposed to be a hidden basement(?) room underneath the tennis court that you can gain access to on PC and some glitches on console. It has like a server room, jukebox, bar, and a set up for monitoring/setting up heists. My guess is they ended up deciding against adding it to the final game and left it as an Easter egg or w.e

My 2 bedroom would be worth $1 mill in that location.

Why does an imaginary house in an imaginary place cause so much internal angst that you have to ask a silly question?
