Around $5 million in Burlingame right now, I see two different kinds of property. Two are houses in Burlingame Park, built in 1921 and 1923, and the third is a Downtown Burlingame residential income building from 1936. The sizes and lots vary widely, from 2,575 sq ft on 5,086 sq ft of land to 7,722 sq ft on 13,389 sq ft.

Burlingame has 18 homes for sale as of November 15, asking from $765,000 to $15,998,000, with a median asking price of $2,993,500. These are the three closest to $5 million, the top of the market.

At $5 million, the search sits in the upper part of Burlingame's asking range, well above the median and far below the highest ask.
