4S Ranch–Builders not negotiating

[4spotentialbuyer]

I agree with jpinpb. At this point it is a stand off. As for all the other suggestions about how qualified we are, etc…we are already preapproved with their lender…have more than enough in cash, assets, income, etc to qualify for a loan, the point is that SELLERS, whether it is a builder or a resell, have not reached the same conclusion that may on this board have….that real estate in San Diego is only declining in value….We have already decided that we WILL not buy unless we see more price drops.

Not prodding you to buy but no reason for a builder to sell either. At leaset not to a retail person.

Who are public builders selling too. Smart ones are selling an interest to investment banks and carrying the loss back against their taxable gains over the last 5 years. They can structure the deals so that they still control the property and now have regained some margin in future sales.

If you ahve the cash and want a good price on a house start finding REO’s in the area, forget about the custom BS and make an offer at the price you think it is worth. Would be far more successful and productive wiht this approach as opposed to complaining about builders salespeople not kissing your ass when you clearly state that you are not going to buy their product at that price.

Don’t go to a Porche dealership and expect them to sell you a Porche at a Honda price simply because they are not selling a lot of cars.

That Porsche analogy only apply if we want RSF homes for Mira Mesa price. We’re just trying to get an Accord for a Camry’s price and that’s pretty doable.

For some reason I thought builders take out construction loans over a certain period of time that eventually needs to get paid. Over however many developments and units, I would think that would start adding up and bills piling up. Some units end up BOM. With increasing inventory and competing w/resale, you would think they would be eager to sell. Eventually they will have to pay the piper. Look at DR Horton liquidating in the Temecula/Riverside/San Bernardino area. Is San Diego next? Will other developers follow suit?
