Participantbeachlover-
bullshit. you are not caught up in a bad financial market as you say…you must be one of those fools who isn’t going to “give it away” and is stubbornly asking TOO MUCH MONEY FOR YOUR DAMN HOUSE. this is a GREAT market for you if you simply price your house right (it will sell in a heartbeat) and then go drive a HARD bargain on some poor fool’s house that meets your move-up criteria.
So stop with the touchy-feely shit…let the schadenfreude be your best friend here.

Participant“I loved Walmart. They are about lower prices and rollback”
I just had an epiphany: Wal-Mart can be just the company to help this country out of the mess we are in.
If they would just loan that little whistling yellow smiley faced guy to the N.A.R., we might begin to see prices rolling back in earnest…;)

ParticipantI’d imagine it was the “San Diego Chargers might make it to the Super Bowl effect” or it could have simply been one of those ever-elusive “greater fools”.
By chance, was/is the buyer 1st generation American (F.O.B.)?

Participantbad news for who???
the realtors???
let them go back to having “imagination Christmas” for a change;)
Rough calculation @ 6%:
$27 MILLION fewer commission dollars to go around than the same month last year!!! That’s gonna leave a mark!!

ParticipantActually, tech-junkie….when you put things the way you did, they all seem pretty damn funny now. 🙂 Thanks for expanding my schadenfreude horizons;)
By the way, 1)some people smoke themselves into getting cancer, 2)some people disregard medical advice and have children too late in life and increase (by exponential factors) the chances of having Down’s Syndrome rear it’s ugly head, 3) some people are not meant for marriage and/or are able to work through infidelity with marriage counseling thereby avoiding divorce, and 4) this guy may have the last laugh when the dust settles. In other words…things are not always what they appear to be.
So yeah, someone’s house falling down a cliff in La Jolla where they must have known it had a significant chance of falling before buying/building it is pretty fucking funny!! Nuff said?

Participant5-10% on $400,000 ranges from $20,000 to $40,000
5-10% on $500,000 ranges from $25,000 to $50,000
let’s see….rushing to buy this year so that you can receive $10,000 to $15,000 “assistance” on an asset that will lose anywhere from $20,000 to $50,000 doesn’t seem like such a good idea, does it?
imagine if we see an additional 20-30% decline…I’m sure you get the point

ParticipantIt’ll be a great Christmas in our household…oh yeah, that’s because we rent. I love the irony which is beginning to unfold before our eyes….jealous bitter renters are beginning to carry the day.
Now I’m looking forward to seeing some brokers, realtors, appraisers, complicit buyers/sellers, etc., go to prison for all the fraudulent transactions these past several years…I’m not holding my breath, though.

Participantsocrattt-
I agree. Only an utter fool would be complaining about renting while sitting on a 2 million dollar wad of cash generated by the sales of (presumably) multiple homes over his lifetime. Can’t see the forest for the trees…
