ParticipantI like Isabella Muchisimo.Being non-latin or non- hispanic might bring questions up with that for me, but it wouldn’t be a hindrance in the end.
Congratualtions Ray!NotCranky

ParticipantRaptor,
I think when you are ready to look you might take and unconventional approach, alongside the traditional, look at listings . No,I am not trying to trigger another bout of OCD. Ask around, run an add as a buyer in whatever kind of community press you have up there. Just relax about it and see what comes of it.You want a special house/site as much as a deal why not try? Look at houses that you like that aren’t for sale and try to ask if they are thinking about selling in the next couple of years. Didn’t you drive by a few and say “wow I wished that was for sale!”
You might get lucky.
Maybe someone wants to sell a a little down the road and will give you and option at a good price since they are secure in having at least a potential buyer? I am not fishing for work with you and you know I respect your agent and your decision to work the way you have, but why not find someone up there that is connected and will beat the bushes for you?NotCranky

-9.2%/yrMy numbers were actually wrong on the work out I did on this I was using the Feb 05, 2008 $310,500 as the listing price.
I honestly never looked at the listing until Nostradamus said it was 229k. It didn’t recently get dropped to 229k I think it was listed at or near that price. I think 310k was probably the trustees sale, again I didn’t look at it,just want to clarify my mistake.
There would be much less point in debating whether a house listed and 229k could go down to 160K. Although I think this actual situation verifies what I have been saying about Lowballing 10-20% off in the summer or even now while interest rates are good and show why I wouldn’t get fixated with the bottom unless I believed, as some do that there is no bottom. I think the rate argument is important in a situation like this… not in the usual way it is used to push buyer’s buttons. The downside risk starts to be getting a little bit lower price but a fixed higher intererest rate that maybe won’t ever drop. Yes the down side risk continues to be price too.We just hsve to weigh these thing for significance considering the properties are penciling out or better and a tax deduction is available for some and that lifestyle change,normally disgust with renting, is a factor too for some.I have no idea what is going to happen to rates. A mortgage broker I work with thinks they will be relatively flat for a year at least. -
