Rank – I believe that PS is one of the most valued contributors to this board. However, go back and read some of the ridiculous generalizations about entire races/ethnic groups in her post – many are not based on anything remotely “scientific”.

As an aside, it’s incredible to me that one can make such statements without hesitation – yet be so horribly offended by sdr’s statement about Casagrand translating loosely to BIGHOUSE…

Since we are all giving everyone the benefit of the doubt here about each others intentions, I think PS can lead us off and give sdr the same consideration regarding what was nothing more than a joke.

“how often did you see a Chinese play soccer or basketball? How many Chinese start a business? Are they creative, playful, able to enjoy themselves if they have failed at something? I don’t know, because they are forced by their parents to study so much. Chinese don’t care if their kids are athletic.”

WTF ?!!? Are you for real?

Powayseller – you add a lot to this board – but as “a Chinese” I’m going to recommend that you stay away from the generalizations regarding ethnicity. Your statements are borderline out of line.

I know, I know – you’ll probably respond and tell me “Hey I’m not like that – I have lots of friends that are (insert race here)”…

PS – You couldn’t stop a penalty kick from my 5 year old Chinese son… I’ll set it up – but I have to check his schedule first. He started his own business selling lemonade, and his days are pretty full.

First round is on me! Good luck – I hope things work out. Keep us posted on how things develop.

Renter –
I think you and I were involved with the same homeowner/investor, and the same property manager. I moved to this area in April with no intention of buying yet. I signed a 1 year lease with a property management company (xxxxx xxxxx and friends) for a home located in the Rancho Bernardo area. The lease was to start on 6/1. During the last week in May I flew back to the east coast to help my wife get ready for the movers. 2 days after I arrived on the east coast I received a call from the property manager who informed me that an attorney for the owner of the home contacted them and advised that the house was going into foreclosure. To the credit of the property manager, they were helpful – they agreed to return my deposit, and offered to assist in finding another home. However, they mentioned that the homeowner owned 5 or 6 homes, all purchased with 100%!! financing (this has to be the same guy). I believe that they were as shocked as I was – and luckily we hadn’t moved in yet. I was able to contact our movers and delay my move for a month. Since that time, I located a different home in North County (more expensive, but nicer) on my own.
Like I said, I don’t believe the PM was aware of the situation until they were notified. I believe they contacted me on the same day the got word of the impending foreclosure(s). All that being said, I’d like to meet the idiot investor and have a few words…

Good luck with everything –
