ParticipantJim puts me down Marion. Different ways. You are not privy to that for two reasons. You were not here when he struck first blood and this is over your head.I am not trying to hurt him. I think my posts before he got here were real and his wasn’t so much more than a sales pitch. Aren’t we allowed to ask for data?
No offense intended, and sorry for the sales pitch.
I haven’t sold any houses at 25% below list price, but I’ve offered that low and lower. I think buyers have the right to make offers, and agents should step up to help them.

P.S. Rustico – your comment about striking blood was referring to today, right? If there was some previous incident, I’ll apologize for that too.

ParticipantAnother reason for no callbacks is that the agents don’t want to work that hard – it’s not easy building a case for why the seller should consider a lowball offer, and worse than that is they think the listing agent might not like them for insulting the sellers.
Agents on both sides need to toughen up – buyers are just trying to do what’s best for them, nobody should take it personal. With the advent of electronic signatures, it wouldn’t take days to figure out if the seller is a player, or a hold-out.
If you need an agent to make those kinds of offers and back them up with a compelling case as to why the seller should consider them strongly, then contact me or Adam – either one of us will be happy to assist you.

ParticipantIt’s one thing to be a blogger and try to inform the public, but it’s another thing to get tied up in lawsuits. I don’t have the time or patience for it, and I don’t think the other bloggers do either.
I’ve had more than one conversation with the FBI, and sent them my 23 pages on what I knew. I’ll let them fight the fight.

ParticipantCathedral Catholic is a three-year-old school that many have likened to a college-like campus, with many high-tech applications. The school was borne out of University High School next to USD. http://www.cathedralcatholic.org/
It’s on Del Mar Heights Rd., which can be a trek from Carlsbad in the morning, but worth considering. Pacific Ridge and Santa Fe Christian are also well thought of, as the comments above confirm.
Renting is a good idea to consider, to get comfortable with the neighborhoods. The chances of you finding a great house at a great price while out-of-town are pretty small.
