My car is almost twenty years old, and even though it runs pretty well every month something breaks or falls off. Time for a newer car.
I agree that buying a brand new car isn’t the best idea, but looking through the above mentioned websites I see that the car I’m interested in (Honda Civic) seems to cost about the same new as a 2 year old Civic. What’s up with that?
Does anyone think Honda dealers might be more motivated to discount later this year? It wouldn’t kill me to drive my old Volvo one more year……

I know what people think they can afford, but my question is
who is getting mortgages these days? I understand there are people who have saved for several years and can make a sizeable downpayment but I don’t think they make up the majority of home buyers.What are lenders lending to folks in the “middle class”? I still see houses being purchased here in North Park for well above 600K. Has it become an “upper class” neighborhod?

Well, the stucco “shack” that we’re renting in Burlingame near Switzer Canyon cost our landlord $650K in 2005. I am sitting on a heating pad with a blanket over my lap. No central heat, no insulation, one bathroom, about 1000 sq ft.
She got a deal at 650, no? I think our deal is better; we rent it for less than 2k a month. I’d say these houses are WAY overpriced!We hear the ghetto birds every week and seems like every other day. SDPD uses the bullhorn to flush the crooks out of the canyon warning them they’re about to let the dogs loose…
There are things we like about the neighborhood and I’ve been a city kid all my life so I can put up with a lot more than most suburbanites BUT the prices of houses in North PARK are just absurd. Anyone who purchases a residence (now) here either has too much money and doesn’t know what to do with it or they’re just plain stupid. You can get a lot more living space for your rental dollar than you if you’re buying.
Two years ago houses on this street would sell in less than a week for asking price. Those days are way over. One of our neighbors has dropped her asking price from 650 to 499 and still no takers. We are seeing more and more of that here. it’s going to get interesting……

Per zillow, it looks like this house grew from 1100 sq ft to 4200 sq ft. That’s quite a remodel/addition!
