ParticipantFemale, married, work full time, also have small children and time to “piddle around” on the internet. I started out reading this site obsessively to find data to support my refusal to buy a house when everyone we knew was buying, and now I stick around to read Marion’s posts. Haha, kidding. I have less time to post now but I still try to keep up with all Temecula information. Thanks TG and others!
ParticipantWe just signed another year lease here in Temecula and are happy to be out of the desperately waiting and searching the mls every day stage that we have been in the last couple of months. I agree with hipmatt and others who think there is still a long way down to go. My concern is that after elections the interest rates will shoot up pretty quickly, but even with that considered I don’t think now is a wise time to buy.
Did anyone see the article in the North County Times yesterday that said:
“As of mid-April, lenders owned 449 foreclosed homes in Temecula and surrounding areas that share its three ZIP codes, and an additional 1,000 homes were in earlier stages of the foreclosure process, according to Foreclosureradar.com, a subscriber service that tracks foreclosures statewide.
Lake Elsinore, a smaller city, had 423 lender-owned properties and nearly 1,000 others in foreclosure. Murrieta and areas just to the east and west of that city had 691 foreclosed homes and an additional 1,400 on the way, according to the service.”
Does anyone have evidence that supports or refutes these figures? If they are correct, then waiting longer can only bring better deals as the banks fight it out…

ParticipantThis post really resonates with me because, while American by birth, I grew up in the Middle East. I have learned to not talk about my experiences with most people due to the extreme ideas that many hold about how Arabs live and what they believe. It is amazing to me that someone who has never even had a meaningful conversation with an Arab can have fully formed ideas of who they are and how they live /think. I apply this theory of silence to other topics like politics and religion. I just get too frustrated with people who have passionate ideas that are based little or no fact. I been proven wrong many times in my life and had to admit that and change my worldview. This site has opened my eyes to new ways of thought and I welcome and seek out new knowledge instead of denying it and being afraid of it. I think that some people will hold onto ideas that are obviously false because of a narrow worldview. Those people are good for playdates for the kids or maybe to go see a movie with but not to waste time arguing with.

ParticipantSorry, we rented a movie and turned off the computer last night. Yes, it was the house on Longfellow. It needed lots of work, according to the neighbors the previous owners went through a divorce and the ex hubby got pissed and took a sledgehammer to the walls, granite, thermostart, etc. Maybe Marion knew him??? Hehe, just kidding Marion. Gotta go, the kids are hungry and my husband is busy doing the dishes 🙂
