Realtors half-truths and full lies

Or better yet, who has more infant toys? I’m sure I’m pretty up there in that one. The TMX Elmo is the cooolest thing my kid has.

I’m still a kid @ heart, so I got to say, besides my computer, my PS3 and Rock Band is my favorite toys. I consider my car as my toy too, so that’s definitely fun, especially when track day come.

Nostradamus: “Now on to the “the right time to buy depends on each person” topic. I do not agree. I think the right time to buy is at or after the bottom.

Buying at or after the bottom is definitely the smart time to buy. Some people don’t care about losing money though. They will let other considerations/pressures come into play and buy whenever they want as long as they can afford it. But, that’s nothing new. Do I think it’s wise? No, I don’t. There is a saying in the Bible, “A fool and his money are easily parted”. We’ve seen a lot of fools in this latest housing bubble.

It happened to me: in this bubble my neighbors went from engineers, doctors, dentists, and teachers to burger flippers, retail sales clerks, and so on. I’m no snob but there has been an increase of unsavory behavior in my neighborhood.

Well, yes, since there is a positive correlation between poverty and crime, I think most of us would feel comfortable living amongst working professionals.

deadzone, it’s a great car. I think it’s just about my favorite of all I’ve owned, except *maybe* my 1967 corvair convertible (the one Ralph Nader called “unsafe at any speed”)… I don’t have the squeaky seat harness, and I often drive with no audio so I can hear how the engine growls. Have you asked the dealer to fix it?

Marion, yes for the money it’s great to buy at the bottom but many people are arguing with points such as “I’m going to be here for 10 years so I don’t care if it goes down because I’m in it for the long run”. My point is, another oft-overlooked consideration is the fact that if prices go down the demographics of the neighborhood will change… Which could mean the schools change, the shops change, and so on.

Nostradamus, I know what you’re saying, dude. Even so, you’re not likely to find me peering out the window saying, “Oh look Honey, a salesclerk just moved in next door, there goes the neighborhood.”

P.S. 🙂 Your point is valid. It wouldn’t bother me in the least if the hard-working couple who work at Costco live on my street since I’m not elitest and never will be. However, when prices become low enough it does open the door for people with problems born out of poverty to get in.
