Participantthis 1700 sqft townhome just closed for $522k:
http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-100034372-11668_Miro_Cir_San_Diego_CA_92131
although if I’m in the market for a scripps home at around half a million, this fixer may be a good one to fix up. except total cost of renovation will be north of $100k.

Participantyes, there is a war on savers. you are getting almost nothing on savings because that is the way the system intends, it wants you to spend it so you can help stimulate and re-inflate the bubble.
gold is dangerous, and I do see the potential for collapse. I agree with stockstradr on that one.
if you got money, buy cash flowing properties in areas that have already bottomed.
I seriously doubt major metro areas in Cali (not IE or SJQ Valley of course) will see the type of devastating drop seen in Vegas/Phoenix/SW Florida. So sorry stockstradr, I doubt you’ll see that old condo of yours going for $80k ever. (we had a similar condo story: we bought our 880 sqft condo in OC for $250k, sold at $360k, missed the peak by $15k, the same condo is now selling for $160k.) I think that’s the bottom, I am under no illusion that I can pick that one up at $80k within a few years.

Participantobviously the petite and likely vain woman was in the wrong here.
#1, she was a standby.
#2, the passenger involved is a mere child.
#3, for anybody the weight is a sore subject, but this is especially so for a teenage girl.
stay silent to minimize hurt feelings, that is the new norm. so shut up and start building bigger planes with bigger seats. the population demands it, without any commotion.
Just follow the lead of the clothing industry, within 60 years “what was a size 8 in the 1950s had become a 4 by the 1970s and 00 today.” The women all feel better about themselves and we just keep growing… all is well in the land of the plenty. that is ultimately what is the most important.

Participant[quote=ybitz]I don’t know much about the condition of this foreclosure, but it sold recently for $450k. Seems like a pretty good price? Maybe an indication that price in old Scripps Ranch has gotten more reasonable.

“Home sold “as is” sellers have limited knowledge of condition. Price reflects lack of upgrades, any discovered necessary repairs, etc.”
the price is very good. but the MLS wording already seem to suggest you’ll discover quite a bit of necessary repairs to the point you may want to do a semi tear-down. plus 40 years without a single upgrade, that tell you something about the prior owners.
