San Marcos Price Reduction

You truly area glutton for punishment. First you ignore the point which is that the sellers in that hood still had time to hold out for a higher price than OCR claimed they could get. He made that claim for 18 months and several weeks ago someone else was able to sell that model in the 500’s.

While RE markets dont turn on a dime, the dollars involved are huge. Timing makes a BIG difference. Most Realtors and consumers for that matter think $5,000 is no big deal. Personally, I never spend my clients money for them and when they take their own money lightly I usually ask them something to the effect of how quick would you be to hand over $5,000 if I stacked 50 $100 bills in your hand right now. Understanding the timing of things allows you to know when to say no to an offer and when to say yes. Timing is always important and makes the difference between matching the market and beating the market (whatever it may be at a given time). Case closed on that one.

Regarding the client that bought in 2005 who isnt underwater. There is one regular poster on this board that I have communicated personally with. You all know him well. I have already emailed him the comps to prove it. If I havent proven it to him, I will encourage him to label me a fraud. If that doesnt satisfy you, I can have let Rich know I proved it to him (as it was Rich who helped put us together). I would prefer not to bother Rich though with something as petty as this.

I’ve had 30+ years of digging out of snow myself. I also visit the desert 3 to 5 times a year and love the desert a few days at a time that is. Given the choice between full time imprisonment in a furnace with limited culture, no pro sports, etc. and icy cold winters with a real city nearby and pro sports I’d take the later every time. BTW, with gas around $5/gallon those quick jaunts down to the beach every weekend will cost you at least $50 a pop.

And lastly, not proof reading my posts and the rsultant poor spelling/grammer has always been my signature a round here.

No dimwit, he identified a trend and predicted a point on it.

“Understanding the timing of things allows you to know when to say no to an offer and when to say yes. Timing is always important and makes the difference between matching the market and beating the market (whatever it may be at a given time). Case closed on that one.”

Your logic only works for those who are in the buying mindset and willing to justify in the face of a declining market that will last several more years. You a fool and you are doing your clients a disservice.

I dare you to direct your clients to this site and to OcRenters site as well.

Define “underwater”. If you mean that their loan to value ratio is less than .80 then my question is how much of their downpayment is still in tact as this point. Oh, and if you try to tell me that the comps don’t show any erosion in value relative to 2005 then I really know you are full of shit.

I see you glossed right over the reason for the move to that area. It wasn’t by choice. YOu live in a Navy Town you f*cktard. Do you not have any understanding of what it is like to be in a military family?

You are dope. Don’t you understand there are two sides to every transaction mushbrains? My logic works for sellers dumbass who are trying to get the best price in a challenging market.

The only reason I dont direct my clients to this site is for preserving my anonymity here. They get the same info and viewpoint from me directly. Most of my buyer clients are sitting on the sidelines unless we find something very compelling. I lose a fair amount of business each year because I preach patience to my clients. Many become impatient and find another agent who will sell them something. Last year I lost between $50K and $100K this way but I sleep at nite.

The comps showing ZERO errosion of value for my 2005 buyer client are sitting in the email box of a prominent PIGG.

And you glossed over the misery you are heading for living in the desert.

I have been on the record on this site with numerous predictions. Overall my record is unmatched by anyone here regarding prices and direction for what I predicted. I have been heavily bearish since I came here but with a sense of feet on the street realism as to how this would play out. You try to portray me as some Realtwhore Bull which I am anything but. You have proven nothing except that you can post links to articles we can all easy find elsewhere on the net. Later fool, I’m done with you.

I hope you two don’t mind me interrupting your engaging banter to answer the question about SEH construction…but oh well.

Our home was built in 2002 and we’ve been in it as renters for just over a year without any problems whatsoever. During the wind/wildfires last year our young tree in the front yard blew over (snapped in half) but otherwise it’s been a great house. I know many of the people on the street, and I have yet to hear of any regular problems with construction…but perhaps because many have been in for 4-5 years or more, the problems have all been settled in the past.

And I agree with the runner, the community is VERY friendly…almost too friendly for those of us that don’t like everyone on the block being “up in my bizness”.

The Albertsons just opened, which is really nice. And we were just sent some artist rendering of the SEH Health Club…who knows when that will be complete though (I’m not holding my breath). I wouldn’t say that it has great freeway access, because it’s at minimum 5 miles from the closest one (78). But it is incredibly quiet and has a great community feel. I loved Encinitas a lot, but 4th street, Neptune, and Village Park, were all much noisier with much less community in my opinion.

Okay…sorry for the intermission…now back to the entertainment. FIGHT!
