[quote=FlyerInHi]For me, the fun of buying real estate is the fixing.
And the fun is the art of the deal. Buy something under maket and make it worth more. But that’s not to say now is a good time to buy in Carmel Valley.

IMO, very few houses are move in ready. If they’ve been fixed, they’re been done up in stages and there’s no flow within home.

The most beautiful house that I have seen in person (other than in magazines) is at a country club in Vegas. The woman and her husband are set designers. I learned from them. It’s the flow and the energy that counts. You will never get that from a so called move in ready house.[/quote]

There is no good deal in Carmel valley right now. The best deal you can get is to not get ripped off completely.
