Here is a Man on the street observation for you.

I was passing through O-Side near the back gate Saturday (don’t ask), There was this new Richman American housing tract being advertised with sign twirlers so we decided to check it out, there were three sales people in the office and one in the model all busy signing new contracts, and the models were very busy with other customers as well.

The Homes were going for about 500K and were 2500 to 3300 sqf.

Did not bother to ask why they were selling so many that day But I would think it was first time buyers maybe.

Could be better. The spring/summer bump is frustrating, because it happened even in Temecula where we’re looking. We’ve put in a few offers, but even when we love the house, there’s this queasy feeling because we know that $80/sf (and less) prices will be coming back. Not to mention that inventory just SUCKS. The nice places are $110/sf+, they’re few and far between, and there’s still (in October) too much competition.

Still, I probably can’t complain, considering the price difference will mean a $1,400 payment instead of an $1,100 payment. It’s not like it will be a hardship.

here are no houses for sale.

everyone wants the houses that are for sale.

it’s difficult to buy a house.

they seem pretty cheap.

but not dirt cheap.

I am afraid to buy one.
