ParticipantJust keep on dreaming you guys. You Wish
ParticipantLendingbubleco, “She’s stuccoed”, I agree. I have been visiting open house to see whats available.I have noticed more 1MILion plus houses on the market in the past 2 weeks than at any other time.The MLS bears this out.
Hold on folks,buckle up,We are in for the ride. The spin by the realtors have spun!!
Have you noticed the jokers. One week a price increase and followed the next by a decrease. They mess with the Days on Market. De listing and relisting. What kind of tactics are these??Who is advising these people.
If I were selling I would unload now rather than feel the pain later down the line.Drop the full commissioned brokers!!February 27, 2007 at 12:20 PM in reply to: Why are people still buying the overpriced real estate in southern California? #46371ParticipantOnly greater fools are buying
ParticipantI think its from Del Sur to 4 S Ranch. The bridge is built.Howver,I am not sure they are allowing traffic there yet. My reasoning is 4 S ranch has a lot of houses for sale and this will interfere with sales at DEL Sur which is wilting.

ParticipantWhat did George TW Chamberlin say at Del Sur? The rosiest scenario I bet.
Participantchump chump chump. Thats all I have to say folks.
Participantwhats personal about am MLS @
You must be fakingParticipantso what is the MLS #
ParticipantKulifonia dreaming
ParticipantThe agent In my Opinion only wants high commisssion sale. It seems that they are reluctant,” at this time” to work with buyers on short sales and REO’s.
They are laid back. They get fed up after 3 or 4 showings. They want to be the “Decider” for you. This is what I think.
They just don’t want to do the leg work!!!You find the house and they get the big fat commission.ParticipantThis is a very stupid planned community.The fools that planned the exits and entrance should go back to school.
Try 6.30 am -8am and see the traffic.
I also think there is HOA, MR and another fee for using the facilities.Maybe someone can say more on this.ParticipantThe appraisers involved in bringing in high appraisals in a
declining price market should loose their license,along with the fraudster realtors.February 14, 2007 at 7:20 PM in reply to: Would you buy a house 300 feet from Power lines and tower #45450ParticipantSaturday, October 14, 2006
Stupid Is As Stupid Does in Carlsbad
Carlsbad
Population 2006: 93,000
Listing per population ratio 1:97
07/16: 1,020 listings
07/16: 431 (42.3%) reduced listings
10/13: 956 listings
10/13: 415 (43.4%) reduced listings
MOI: 13 monthsFlipper 1 bought this 4,180 sqft, 5 bed/4.5 bath La Costa Oaks McMansion right next to the power-line from the builder 6 months prior for $999,500. Now taking a $59,500 loss after commission, it is now yours for a cool million dollar flat. The best part about this is you bring no money to the table as the bank is willing to spot you that cool million with a zero down, 100% financing. Yes, zero dollar out of pocket and here comes fine estate living in costal Carlsbad.
There must be a catch! Well, there is. At $1,000,000 flat, 100% financing at 6% is a cool $6,000/month. But the lender is Fremont Investment & Loan, a well known sub-prime lender. And the financing involved would be at jumbo loan rate. In all likelihood, stated income loans were also used. A 9% interest rate is not unheard of given the above circumstances. What’s $1 million at 9% mortgage rate? Try $8,000. Plus HOA/property tax/mello-roos, you’re looking at a carrying cost of $9,200/month.
And so 746x Circulo Sequoia is now ending up on foreclosure street with a notice of default filed 9/29/06. But this is where it gets interesting. The purchase date was 3/9/06. In general, the first mortgage payment comes due on 4/1/06. The bank at least would serve a 45 day ‘pre-notice of default’ warning to bring the account current prior to the actual NOD filing. 45 days prior to 9/29/06 would have been mid August, a mere 3 months after the 1st payment past due.
Could it be that our new owner on 746x Circulo Sequoia never intended to pay the steep $9,200 monthly payment? It’ll take another 4 months until the actual auction date. Assuming non-payment since the inception of the loan, we are looking at free 4,180 sqft estate living from March ’06 to January ’07. Who is truly the stupid one?
746x Circulo Sequoia is currently offered for sale at $1,135,000 to $1,150,000. Is Fremont Investment & Loan offering another zero down, 100% loans for $1.135 million?
There are currently 8 other McMansions for sale on Circulo Sequola, 3 are from the builder:
–7679 Circulo Sequoia at 4,337 sqft for $1.6 million.
–7695 Circulo Sequoia at 3,739 sqft for $998,900.
–7687 Circulo Sequoia at 3,739 sqft for $1.37 million.5 others are from flippers, 2 of them are Realtors. These may not be involved in mortgage fraud, but how many of these are also zero down, 100% financed with option ARM, stated income loans? BTW, would it surprise you to know the San Diego County Association of Realtors is now running radio ads telling folks it is a great time to buy a home?
–7xx2 Circulo Sequoia at 4,337 sqft. Purchased for $1,072,500 in 9/05, asking for $1,279,000 since 9/28/06.
–7xx9 Circulo Sequoia at 4,337 sqft. Purchased for $1,383,500 in 2/06, asking for $1,600,000 – $1,849,876 since 8/28/06.
–7xx7 Circulo Sequoia at 3,739 sqft. Purchased for $1,008,500 in 4/06, asking for $1,149,900 since 8/13/06.
–75×2 Circulo Sequoia at 4,337 sqft. Purchase price unknown. Asking for $1,235,000 since 8/8/06.
–7xx3 Circulo Sequoia at 3,994 sqft. Purchase price unknown. Asking for $999,000 – $1,099,876 since 8/1/06.Posted by ocrenter at 10:25 AM

What is the agent who took the picture thinking?Does he think that buyers don’t mind? I’d guess that he hasn’t had a showing.

Jim, you actually had this house listed in your “same house sale” page, #11. I get the feeling a great majority of zero down, 100% financed purchases in 2006 will all end badly for the lenders.10/14/2006 12:46 PM

Loved the “growth on the side of my head comment”! Actually snorted from laughing so hard.The situation above is the essence of the RE Bubble – greed, speculation and just plain stupidity.
This is really going to hurt us in CA.

Come on Lindi, don’t be so negative. Just based on averages there has to be SOMEONE stupid enough to buy it. Just think if you located that person, you could even get a referral bonus!

>we are looking at free 4,180 sqft estate
>living from March ’06 to January ’07Let’s see, HV power lines, a 2-car garage with unimaginitive concrete landscaping… I think this bigass house is only “an estate” in probate court. Before it’s all over, and even though it’s a sin, somebody will be wishing someone was dead.

Common guys. High power lines are good. They slowly and constantly give radiation to your body. You can consider it as “preventive cancer therapy”.I think there should even be premium for it.

I love Carlsbad … and it’s clear this is going to be one of the worse places hit in Cal. There is no big commerce (outside of Lego Land and the mall) to support these prices. It’s right in the middle of Irvine and the Gas Lamp Q.This place is awesome, but it’s going to get hammered, and I’ll be there to purchase my plan B.

Legoland and the Mall are the only emplyers? Wow… That is some kind of dumb. The 2 you mentioned are not even one of the top employers: http://www.ci.carlsbad.ca.us/econdev/econ7.html10/16/2006 3:51 PM

What you said was:“There is no big commerce (outside of Lego Land and the mall)”
And that is clearly long. Legoland and the mall (which mall by the way) are not even the largest of the employers in Carlsbad.
