Mansionmania rolls along with our juggernaut Elite 8 4th-round contestants. You will choose among each pair of houses with the following assumptions:
The purchase price for you is $0.
All maintenance, utilities, property taxes, HOA fees, and cleaning is included.
You must live in the home for the rest of your life.
You can't travel more than 100 miles from home (via google maps drive time) other than 1 two-week vacation each year.
You get $250,000 per year as a living allowance
You get an additional living allowance at the cheaper home, which will be valued at 1% of any cost difference annually. I will note this amount in the poll.
You get the furnishings. If unfurnished, you get an allowance that will give you mid-grade furniture in every room.
You get any vehicles in the garage. But only the garage - nothing parked outside.
I encourage you to click on the maps in the listings to see the general location and neighborhood.
Also, I will only enter contestants if they have a sufficient number of photos to judge, as determined by me.

Crab is easily the best shellfish if you're willing to do the work for the meat. Sweeter and more complex than Lobster (which pretty much just tastes like the butter you have to dip it in).
With the extra $50K, I can eat as much Blue Crab as I want, and I don't have to look at all the old people decor. [Reply]

I’m paying someone to deliver fresh crab to my house in Alabama. While I’m in my big ass shop I build to restore old cars. [Reply]
It's interesting that three of our four heats in this round are close, with the only exception being Hawaii over Wyoming. I wonder if that bodes well for Hawaii. [Reply]
Since we're close to the end and I like to give each heat a couple of days, I'll let these four heats cook tomorrow before we move on to the Final Four. [Reply]
