In this market with this activity then clearly she is a boob if she actually could have marketted it on the MLS but chose not to for two weeks. [/quote]

That is a good point, but as I have been to multiple Sunday afternoon drive-by open houses in the last few months with the same scenario I found it believable. I stopped into one that was IMHO a very poor complex/neighborhood (Tanglewood)and there were 8 other units already on the mls. When I asked the realtor why her listing (a REO) was so much more expensive than the other listings in the complex she gave me a cow-eyed expression and said “what other listings?” It was a few days later that I saw that one pop up on the mls, at the same asking price (way to high) and as far as I know it has not sold. So clearly, my opinion would support the logic that these realtors are boobs.

I have been watching the area (Carlsbad) and the surrounding territories of Vista and Oceanside. Carlsbad (with the exception of one huge complex) seems to be holding steady, while the adjacent areas of Vista and Oceanside are dropping.

We have 2 kids, who live with their mom in Encinitas, a large dog, and 2 cats; therefore, while school district is a factor for resale, our current quality of life is more about where the value is and how close we are to the beach and hiking/biking trails.
