Participant[quote=LAAFTERHOURS][quote=BGinRB]Banks have to give tenants 90 days to vacate. I don’t know how cooperative the tenant has to be, probably not much.
$499K is unrealistic there and now. Condos north of Del Norte (higher MR, higher HOA, higher downpayment if you want to avoid PMI) are selling for more. Either something is seriously wrong with that house or they intend to start a bidding war.[/quote]
That price is not unrealistic. Those condos you are referring to (those sexy shared driveway homes) are pushing into the mid 400s and some of them have 2100 sq ft.[/quote]
I don’t think we are talking about the same neighborhood. The houses on Fieldthorn and Manassas have that shared driveway. What I had in mind is the area north of Camino del Norte, between Camino San Thomas and Paseo de Linda (Garden Path and Garden Walk). Those are detached, but zoned condo. One recently sold for $520K or so – the buyer discussed the deal on this board.
[quote=LAAFTERHOURS] This house is small, has only 3 beds. If they were accepting other types of offers, this would probably push 525-550. Garden gate right near by are single families of the same size and they have broken sub 500 already. [/quote]
Garden Gate are detached, but again zoned condo.[quote=LAAFTERHOURS]Its time for 4s sellers to realize their listings are overpriced.[/quote]
I agree. I just don’t see that happening with this house. The next non-contingent SFR in 4S Ranch is the Lone Bluff slider @ $650K. I suspect there will be at least one person with cash or access to hard money willing to spend ~$550K on this one.

ParticipantThe banks are not in business of flipping houses. For banks your house is just a collateral, while the real product is your mortgage. Something much more liquid and predictable.
I would think the holders would try to offload the existing mortgages to a greater full (GSE) and then wait for stability at any price level, the lower the better, to start the process again.
