Well said FLU. There are plenty of “big hat, no cattle” people around. There’s a single gal in my office who bought a house in the summer of 2005 despite the warnings some of us gave her.
She had $100K saved for a down payment, which she has more than lost by now. But she also drives a newer beemer, has the latest cell phone gizmo, wears designer clothes, etc. She’s going around with zero or negative net worth, but at least she does it in style!

August 21, 2008 at 8:08 AM #259589La Jolla RenterParticipantI find the show fairly well done. It is interesting to see who is buying and selling these high priced homes.
I think the show does a good job capturing the mental and emotional states of the buyers and sellers. In one episode, a seller accepts a low ball offer that you didn’t expect him to accept. It reiterated that in this market, there are sellers that will accept a below market offer because they, for various reasons, need the home in escrow “yesterday”.
The show makes getting a 5 million dollar listing look pretty easy. I guess it is pretty easy to approach a prospective seller and say, if you give me the listing, I will put you on TV. The egos of the Southern California Socialite can’t resist the opportunity to show off their success. As long as the show keeps going, these kids are going to clean up.
Maybe the shows producers pushed the mushroom haircut. I would gladly sport that dew for the opportunity.

August 21, 2008 at 2:00 PM #259578AnonymousGuestI’ve watched the show and it definitely lacks realism. Remember it’s “Hollywood” so alot of it is staged even though it’s supposed to be reality. I live in LA and the housing market here is getting worse by the day.
AND, that guy has the worst hair around. I seriously don’t know how he can look in the mirror and think he looks good. It screams DORK!!! (I hope he reads this and gets a clue).
