ParticipantTry pacific sales (there is one in RB), they don’t advertise their prices but I’ve found them to beat the big chain stores. The sears outlet that allan mentioned is also another great choice, especially for a washer/dryer who cares if it has a scratch or a dent. I’ll cast another vote for the HE3t, that thing is the bomb. Be patient, I picked up my he3t pair off craigslist for $750 for the pair and both pedestals. They were three years old and I had to move them from the sellers upstairs laundry room and rent a truck, plus there is a risk with anything used but almost every female relative of mine has had them for years with no problems and they love them like dudes like their harley’s, it’s a creepy loyalty but it was enough for me cause I don’t know the difference. I wasn’t about to drop 2k on a washer and dryer so it took a little work because they go fast on craigs, if I had to do it again I’d go sears outlet, when I was looking they didn’t have the one I wanted, they probably do now.

Participantjp, if the prices of your place fall to rent nuetral, would you buy one? Would you worry about current macroeconomic conditions, unemployment, foreclosure rates, or would you just decide it’s now the same out of pocket, what the hell.
I think that is who the buyers are and will be, a lot of areas in S.D. and outside of it have reached those fundamentals, in some places it is cheaper to buy than rent. I wonder how many times in history it was cheaper to buy than rent and how long it stayed that way.

ParticipantAN, you definately have an inventory problem. I did a redfin on 92126 and there were 136 total listings (including fsbo’s, apartment buildings, basicly everything residential), of that about 50 were short sales. So it’s more than a third and it’s so hard to tell if a short has offers because they never make them inactive until escrow closes, due to the nature of short offers being non binding. Then I looked at the stats and trends and between april 14th and april 30th, there were 40 closings, so this represents a two week supply. Further, I looked at the freshest 40 listings and the age of the 40th was 53 days, comparing that to the 16 days it takes to sell that many, the trend is worsening, three places sell for each one that lists.
I understand that redfin is not the best way to analyze data and the sales data includes banks taking a house back so it can’t be relied upon but it’s best way to take the pulse for us non realtor types. It kinda balances out because active listings are many times not active, only a phone call can verify if there are offers and the strength of those offers, but you get a fair snapshot and you can extract out the shorts.
The real question is, if you were a bank and you were sitting on a vacant unlisted repo in mira mesa, why wouldn’t you list it right now, the wind is at your back and it may not stay that way.

If I’m wrong, double or nothing, the next five posts will be hilarious.
