There's a lot of this in Calif. I was watching Flip or Flop a few days ago where they renovated a small ranch style house in Garden Grove probably 1200 sqft. The asking price was $650,000 - which is a good deal. During the open house an elderly couple stopped by and said they purchased their house in the same neighborhood in 1955 for $14,000.
There are a lot of "wealthy" [only on paper] Californians that bought their houses in the 60s, 70s, 80s and even the 90s before real estate went to the moon and before the housing crisis. The problem today is millennials won't be able to save up enough or have a high enough income to buy a starter home at these prices until much later in life if ever.
