Enorah, avoid that location at all costs, one of the worst barrios in the north county. I am very familar with the area, take the advice above and go with Shadowridge for just a few dollars more, five miles and a world away. That hillside house is in what is considered the “townsite” area of Vista, whenever you hear of a gang shooting or something else that makes the news related to Vista, it is usually within a mile of that house.

On the plus side, if you work in the media you can help the environment and walk to crime scenes daily, without increasing your carbon footprint. Vista is very “hit and miss” on the North side of Highway 78, but a good rule of thumb is the further away from the townsite area, the better. A year ago someone asked about a property a mile or two away and I advised against it because of it’s proximity to….you guessed, the very neighborhood this house is in.

Now if you were a spanish speaking gang member who burglarizes homes for a living and is concerned about the high gas prices as they relate to commuting to places where you can buy drugs or weapons, I would say that this house is the perfect location, everything you would ever want is within walking distance.

The force is strong with you, young jedi. Yes, that is a tempting one and probably my leading candidate if I were to fall off the wagon now. I have one more season of will power (and a lease) so the Fall will be earliest temptation and more likely to get a lowball taken seriously (I would love to pick that one up for 250k, that would be below 1992 pricing if you took into account that it went new for 225k and the pool and landscaping is easily worth 25k. Ones like these are drawing a crowd right now but come September it should thin out. Can you imagine pulling a 1992 price, they’d have to add my face to Mt. Rushmore. However I will need to buy those “run flat” tires because I’ll probably have t-shirts made for the kids that say “my dad bought his house for less than you paid new 16 years ago and all I got was this lousy t-shirt” and I’ll order personalized license plates for my car that read “92price,” the neighbors will have a schedule as to who’s turn it is to slash my tires.

I talked myself out of it because I’ve had enough of pools, the utilities alone probably add $200 a month, care and maint, it’s a $500 a month liability, community pools ar better for me, more to look at. The other huge drawback is the kitchen will need to be completely ripped out, cabinets and all. Those 1992 jobs came with whitewashed oak and the owner obviously slapped on some red paint and destroyed any chance of refinishing it. It also looks like linoleum/pretend tile and white tile counters….ick. A worthy project at 250k but for 300, it’s within a few bucks of some that are already dialed in and I’m lazy. I’ve come this far, might as well go for the brass ring.

I never recorded nod and not, I’ve checked it weekly on foreclosure.com for about two years. I just watch the overall trends, which have been upwards and worse than ever lately. I monitor it closely now as an insurance policy so I don’t miss any turn in the market and I watch particular houses on streets that I like because I am terribly picky and only want to buy in a few neighborhoods, so I will know what is coming in those areas.

I do have about two years of monthly inventory numbers, broken down into 100k increments of listing price, but it’s at work and I’m not. It isn’t in excel, rather pencel (pencil) in a notebook. However it is only for 92592 and the problem is that the entire market has shifted out of my data collection so I gave up. It was broken down into 700k-1m, 600-700, 500-600, 400-500 and under 400. When I started there weren’t very many under 400 and my data is inclusive of condos, 500-600 was the largest group. There is basically no market for anything over 400k anymore and it has been months since I wrote it down because of that. I’ll compile the numbers and post it one day. Nowadays I check, sub 200, 200-300, and 300 to 350k but I stopped writing it down because there’s nothing to compare it to and I’m not spending more than 350 or I wont be to pay my mortgage with one weeks pay which is part of my evil plan to one day rule the world. It was an education for me and allowed me to make comparisons, now I am full of myself and I just use the force.

After reading that exchange between jasper and CA renter, I’m, literally exhausted and convinced men and women are not meant to do anything other than mate.

If I can figure out a way to be gay and not have sex with men, I think I’m going with that.
