Shadow inventory finally being released ?

[quote=bearishgurl]Just curious sreeb, did your Mission Village house have a knotty pine kitchen and another pine room divider with floor-to-ceiling square holes in it between your 3 x 3 ft front entrance and the living room (no foyer)?

The “square holes” were to put your souvenirs, glass figurines and other “knick-knacks” in :=)[/quote]

I think that knotty pine is a subversion of the clean California ranch house. I’d be the first to rip it out. It was an attempt to add some traditional “country” features to modern houses.

I was talking to builders and learned that design of new spec houses should always be contemporary enough to look like a change and improvement. But houses should always appeal to that imaginary 50 yo buyer (that demographic has the most desire and ability to pay).

Most people believe this about themselves, whether it’s true or not (just as most people think they’re underpaid). There are all sorts of cognitive biases at work here, including confirmation bias, self-serving bias, belief bias… I could go on. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but rather that you’re not objective on this issue (nor is anyone about themselves), which makes it a mildly ridiculous statement unless preceded by “I *believe* that…”.

Of which there is no shortage, in my experience.
