Actually, "half-backs" is not a new word...it has been used in this area for as long as I can remember. Here is applies to most anyone from up north, not just New Yorkers.

Happy New Year!

Frankenhouse--the impossible home that emerges as the buyers dream home during a home tour with this kitchen, that lot and this other floor plan.

Well, this one is kind of negative but when parents of first time homebuyers come into the scene as all-knowing everything about real estate but really know nothing - I call them "grenades" as they always end up blowing up and killing the deal.

This is an old one I'm sure you've all heard before, but I could not think of any other one:  "Snowbird."  We Canadians (those who can afford it) go down south for the winter...

First heard of the half back trend in a Robert Allen workshop about a decade ago.  A lot of our Wisconsinites do end up living half way to Florida.
