No it was a rhetorical question for zeist. The point was if he thinks there is real big downside ahead then why tell someone to keep looking. Tell them to take a break until the carnage passes. I found the comment conflicting.

June 25, 2010 at 9:41 AM #571378sdcellarParticipantAhhh, I probably would have connected the comments if not for the page break.
I’m definitely still of the mindset that the market stands a decent chance to go down from here, but if I can find a place that works for me, I’m going to buy it. I think you already know that about me, but others may have a different impression.

I *could* have come in ridiculously high, won and then bail, but that wouldn’t have achieved my objective, which was getting the house. So, no, I don’t think that would have made me feel much better.
I know you were mostly joking, but I wanted to clarify my options *and* what you describe is a reasonable example of things that cross your mind.
For example, I told my wife I was going to burn down the house. You know, if I can’t have it, then no one can. She just laughed at me like I wouldn’t really do it. Don’t you hate that?
Anyway, I decided not to because a) I’m not an arsonist or even really all that evil, and b) because I don’t really blame the buyer. I know I’d do the exact same thing if I were them.
So, I’m left with how to punish the listing agent, but again, that “not as badass as I like to fancy myself” thing gets in the way. I’m still noodling on that one.
