[quote=lepetitangel]By the way, the powerlines are the small regional ones but not the big ones. I know that in the CV area south of 56 and east of 5, there’re quite a few power tower.
But I love this area cuz it’s newer and very conveniently located.
Any thought on price action in this area? say in the next 6 months?
What I worry about is also about interest rate. Any thought on rate staying around 5%? or spike up higher? or dip?[/quote]
Lep, imho you’re thinking way too much.
Just spend the extra $50k.. I mean, don’t actually put an additional $50k down of your own money… Just borrow more.Rates high/low..Big deal…..Screw it….Get yourself into a fixed rate 30 year loan, and laugh your ass off as the dollar continues to depreciate and what you owe to the bank becomes ridiculously laughable.
I mean it…Cheap money, coming weakening dollar…Sounds pretty good to me….Get what you want and enjoy life for a change…

February 15, 2011 at 10:26 AM #666559SD RealtorParticipantI could not agree with FLU more. I am always one to say if you love the home buy the home so I guess if it is a home you love go with it. However I would consider a home that is at least on par with the other homes in the subdivision. I am not a huge fan of power lines or other attributes that are considered detrimental to the home.
If there has been a great time to borrow money the past 2 years have been such a time.
