ParticipantSounds like you are falling in love with this house, and willing to pay more than what the market (and an appraisal) would dictate–a dangerous place to be. I’d wait and let the market educate the delusional owner and his/her agent. Your point that an appraisal would not support their holdout price is your best ammunition. Stay on friendly terms with the seller and agent and be patient.

ParticipantJust wondering, what if all Americans drove vehicles that got Prius-like gas mileage? How much would US oil consumption fall by? How much would gasoline prices fall by? Would this change our foreign policy for the better? Our defense committments in the Middle East? Would NavyDocs still be as frequently deployed?
The fact is, drivers of gas-guzzlers should thank Prius drivers (and bicyclists).
And realistically, it is the drivers of behemoths who are less likely to share the road with bicyclists than the more agile and controllable small vehicles.EconProf

ParticipantA little too harsh here on Prius owners, and, lets face it guys, you are bitter about the gas saving they are getting compared to your vehicle. I’d guess Prius drivers are more likely to drive conservatively and have a lower incidence of hitting bicyclists than other cars.
I once rode my bike to MN. I quickly learned my greatest threats were young guys in pickups and old ladies in Buicks. The first group had it in for me; the second never saw me.EconProf

ParticipantDepends on the circumstances. I’d accept the lesser amount only if the rent increase was valid in every way, the receipt issued for the amount had the notation “partial rent for month of….”, and is handed over with a 3-day notice for the remainder of the rent due. This advice, BTW, I received from Ted Smith, perhaps San Diego’s most experienced eviction attorney.
