Mountain View has a variety of single-family and multifamily homes along its tree-lined streets. Modest cottages and ranch-style houses make up the most common designs, with some featuring modern updates and renovations. Over 70% of residents rent their homes, but the area also offers a good opportunity for aspiring homeowners. “If you want to buy a house, you can get something pretty cheap,” says Paul Lambert, a Realtor at Herrington and Company LLC with 25 years of experience. “The average house around here is up in the $400,000s, whereas in Mountain View, you could get lucky and get something in the $200,000s.” Most single-family homes range in price from the low $100,000s to the upper $300,000s.
