Old real estate listings in @sacbee_news (some over 100 years old). Found via @saclib archives online.

Here's a listing from 1910 for 17.5 acres in #SouthLandPark. "The soil is so good that it will pay interest on the investment" 1/4
Anyone need two houses on one lot in #OakPark? This listing is from January 1910. 2/4
Ah, the days where there was so much vacant land... "Land in the Sacramento Valley will never be cheaper." Hard to argue with that. February 1910. 3/4
Last one. This is from 1959 and it was the first instance I could find of "Fabulous 40s" in The Bee. This isn't an exhaustive study of course, but I was curious when it became known as "Fab" in #EastSac. I saw another listing from 1959 that said "Exclusive 40s." 4/4
