Take a look at this: http://1127earroyoroad.danielledouglasrealestate.com/

The seller of the house accepts BTC, and the realtor actually posts this on her website. awesome

Here's the realtor's site:
http://www.deserthillshorseproperties.com/
He has BitPay button on his webpage. Smiley

I called him, and he says the transaction would go through an escrow, although he said not all of the BTC has to be exchanged to USD. It seems it all depends on the people issuing the title, and even they don't really need to know about BTC.

It looks like there are some Craigslist ads selling houses where they accept BTC:
https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/apa/4210057534.html
The person who posted this ad responded:

nothing to do with government.

and no, the current equal to the dollar value.  Today it would be about 1/3 bitcoin (roughly)

since the dollar is falling, some say beginning a crash, I simply hedge using bitcoins.  There is a lower exchange rate if you are traveling too.  and you can avoid the Federal Reserve Banking system, which is not federal, nor is there a reserve.  go figure.

I'm wondering how the logistics of buying/selling a house in BTC would work.
From the U.S. or state government's perspective, what would be involved? Certainly, they'd want to tax the transaction somehow
I think the tax problem would be the most worrying one. However I'm sure it must not be so hard to come up with a solution.

I guess I would agree on a $ amount and then convert to BTC at closing. There is a lot that could go wrong in that idea. lol but I would be willing to try it.
The hard part would be finding a buyer who would be willing to try it too.

It seems to be very high risk with the ever changing price.
One can just use dollar value and equivalent in bitcoin at the time of purchase. Those who sell their house for bitcoin probably isn't planning to immediately cashout everything though, and so they can hold on it for a long time, as an investment.

Has anyone here bought or sold a house in BTC? I've seen people on Craigslist asking for BTC for cars, but not houses.
