goblue my statement about overpaying was not based on any analysis of this particular home. It was more generic in the sense that I think birdrock ppsf will come down over the next two years. Sorry if I misled you on the posting. Right now, once more the local dynamics of many communities are pretty piss poor because of the inventory.

However, since this is a big concern to you, I would advise that you ask your realtor to run very in depth Birdrock comps to see how they look. It may be helpful to look at recent cancelled and expired to see how they compare to the solds.

Let me ask you this, what has your realtor told you and what are his/her thoughts about appreciation/depreciation potential? What about the market in Birdrock in general?

Anyways I think that if you have patience you will get a better deal. That is the bottom line. You may not get a better home though. I understand it is a tough call to make.
