OK. That’s useful. Thanks. Looks like it’s down 15-20%, roughly. Not sure I really have any follow-up questions now that I htink about it. Just trying to understand the market up there.
One thought I have is – I, personally, don’t understand why that place is so expensive in the first place. It isn’t my cup of tea. I’d rather live in an 800K UC house than an 800K house in those zip codes. It is too far north for me, which means a bad commute, and nothing to do. So, I don’t have a handle on that market at all.
Here’s a Q for you – how much for a small house (1700-2000 sq. ft) on a 10K sq. ft canyon lot up there? Do houses that small even exist ?
I still object to your concept that sales are down because there is not enough inventory. That just doesn’t make sense, especially in light of the 20% reduction over the time period in which both sales and prices were falling. Though you are probably seeing a much better balance in supply/demand now, with both down significantly from where they once were.
Also, the dichotomoy in the economy is fascinating to me. Some have been devastated, while others are totally unaffected or thriving. I was just pondering this today. It’s almost like there are two economies out there. I’m not sure exactly what separates them.
