ParticipantThis is why HOAs are good. Along with not having RV row on your street
-The size, type and number of pets. “We do have one client who has a scale in the manager’s office to weigh a pet. They don’t want big dogs,” Pearlstein said.
-Exterior antennas, clotheslines, flags, fence types and paint color
-Running a home-based business, including restrictions on parking commercial vehicles.This is a good part of HOAs

ParticipantIts annoying when you walk in the kitchen and they ahve to point out that they have stainless steel appliances. Yeah no shit, I thought it was just shiny paint. They are so sleezy and creepy.

ParticipantCommuting into CV from either area is going to be a nightmare, but since you probably own a Bentley then the drive should be comfy.
It seems that you have millions to drop on a house so here is my advice. Look at Del Mar Mesa. These homes rival those you will find in RSF and Santa Luz. The commute would be a no brainer and the views are fantastic.

ParticipantThe listing is no longer on the market. Interesting. So did it sell?

ParticipantLook for comps in your area and undercut them all. If the area average for a home similar to yours is $700k then put yours up for $675k and then go to costco, buy a 50 inch visio plasma and offer it as an incentive to buy. You’ll be surprised at how many jackasses out there will drop $700k on a home for a “free” $1500 TV.

ParticipantThat last house is incorrectly listed as 2700 sqft. I think they meant the lot. Those homes were max 2000 sqft.

ParticipantWHich community is section 8?

ParticipantHow will this story end?
Hmmm. Let me think. How about REALLY BAD!

Participantrent is going to be $400-1000. KB was going to build luxury units, it was never the intent to rent low income apts. The downtown downturn is going to be rough.

ParticipantThe chargers are overhyped, housing is overpriced, gas is over priced, hmmmmmmm. Do you see the pattern?

ParticipantUgly tile and walls. Who picked that salmon color kitchen cabinets. There is no way I would buy this house for $680, since I would have to gut it and add some color to it. What a joke!

ParticipantHLS, you are correct.
The Fed rate ahs stayed level for the last year but mortgage rates have gone up as high as 1.5% from last year. Soooooo fed rates stay the same yet mortgage rates go up. Where is the connection? There is none. Fed rate goes down today the mortgage rates will stay the same or go up some more. The banks offered a 4.5% rate when the FED rate was 1%. When the fed rate was 5% they offered mortgages at 6%. There is no relation whatsoever. The only people that benefit from this are the banks.

ParticipantThis won’t do a thing to help the housing market at all. The banks already made it clear that they don’t want to deal with Jumbo loans anymore and most likely won’t lower their rates.
