So SD R, was it you???

[doublewide]

Hey SD R and anyone else who reads this thread,

As you may remember, last summer my family and I moved out of our Scripps Ranch/Wine Country rental because it had “issues”. We found a new place here in Scripps in a development called Renaissance. When we signed our lease at the beginning of July there was a place at 11704 Mira Lago Way for sale. It’s been for sale that whole time. First time we saw it, it was listed at 889k, then sprouted a “reduced” sign and went to 869K, most recently it was at 799K and magically today there it was SOLD!

So was it you? Did you finally go for it??? Did that broken fence at your rental finally push you over the edge?

We never could figure out why it hadn’t sold all these months. Great location, no mello-roos, no HOA. Granted it has a small back yard and no fence but it’s right next to a park – why have the expense of a big back yard when you have a park right next door?

Was it all about price or is there more to the story?

Interstingly, when I went to Zillow to pull up the house number it came up as having been viewed 11 times today…quite a popular house all of the sudden.

What we really love is the smaller place around the corner on Mira Lago Terrace that was listed at 999K when we moved in, went up to 1.09 M and is now listed for Rent…I think it’s still for sale too, it’s a hard one to keep tabs since there are no flyers.

If it was you, welcome to the ‘hood. If not, what do you suppose it finally went for? We always said if it droped to somewhere in the 500’s we’d think about buying it – mostly since that’s all we can afford!

heheheheh….

doublewide my wife has got her pedal to the metal but no it was not me my friend. It took my goofball landlord a full week to fix our back fence as he refused to call someone to do it and did it himself. He chastised me for calling an electrician for my rental in PB as my tenants called me that same week and told me one of the outlets in the bedroom had a problem.

I had toyed with the idea of lowballing the one on Sunset Ridge that closed escrow a few months ago. However the street is to busy and the house had bad divorce karma. Anyways I went into 11704 and it is a nice place. Wifey cannot hang with the pink/salmon exterior of it… even if you paint it all your neighbors and pink/salmon as well and it is like a bad pepto bismol dream. I did like the view but I am a hound for a big lot so the whole thing was a nyeh for me. Plus at that price they were not gonna take a lowball from me nor was I gonna go up to them. Don’t get me wrong they are nice places, just not for me… I am to low end for them.

So yeah once upon a time in January of 07 they opened at 979k and worked their way through a few expirations and then booyah they found a pending at the 799k asking price. It will be good to see what it closes at.

The other property is 10066. Yeah that has floated around on the market awhile and it is nice as well.

As for the pricing… well the 500’s would be nice but that is a pretty far flung dream my friend. I bet it went for high 700’s maybe low 800’s. Right now this spring flurry may even play out stronger then I anticipated. It makes me crankier then watching Norv Turner make stupid play calls. When it closes I will post if you remind me…

We are still at fort pinot noir circle in the old part of town. The flipper who bought the home on Reisling for low 600s finished it and is spinning it at …..drum roll please… 865k!!! Wowsers… she is also the same lady who is selling the home on Avenida Magnifica for 793.

SD Realtor

ps – there must be a spy here because the riesling flipper repriced to 805-860k today.

pss – the pinot noir home which I lowballed when it was a fsbo is now on the mls. he is marketing it with jeff karchin!

psss – the other home on riesling which was first listed with help u sell… then with keller williams… is now listed with coldwell banker.

Yeah, we knew the 500K range on that Mira Lago Way place was never gonna happen but since it’s all we can afford….we’ll you get the idea:>)

We’d been over by our old place on Chardonnay over the holidays and noticed one of the places on Riesling had had a makeover. We used to call it the red house, as compared to the blue house that was for sale across the street. We never imagined that whomever bought the red house would try to flip it…yikes…

The blue house is still for sale? With it’s third agency? Those owners must have nerves of steel – I’d be a basketcase by now. Although, I think you did say once that they had moved out so they don’t have to live with the constant stress of showings, but still.

I’ll try to remember next month to check in with you and see what Mira Lago Way sold for…We’ve seen no sign of the current owners making any moves towards moving so I guess they are waiting for contingencies to be removed. In 17 days I’ll look for boxes to start being packed.

The owners of blue now live in North Carolina. They have no worries regarding money, let’s put it that way. I know she has a tremendous involvement with Cookie Lee jewelry and she is a very nice lady.

Yeppers red was bought by a flipper and as I said they are the same people flipping Avenida Magnifica. Anyone that buys it for the 800 or so they are asking will be intrigued to know it went for low 600’s a few months ago.
