I’m not a big fan of the glue traps either.
Our construction then getting a dog was a good way to remove the rats who lived on our lot. They used to run along our fence line and had a nest behind our shed. Shed was removed as it was in the path of heavy grading equipment… now we have a dog who LOVES to sniff out stuff… haven’t seen a single rat since we got the dog.

[quote=Rustico]Hey Ucgal, One more lettuce tip. You can just start a mass planting in a pot and tease them apart when they are about two inches tall. Learned it on youtube, it works. It’s a great time to start. You can start them outdoors now or in a nice southern window sill.[/quote]
Good tip, Russell. We’re in process of weeding and prepping our planting beds right now… And goal is to start some seeds this weekend. (We’ve got a bunch of egg crates ready to start ’em).

Last year you had giant watermelons pretty early in the season compared to us. What time of year did you plant them? We planted around May and had very tasty melons in October. I know we need to start them earlier this year. Just trying to figure out the best time.

[quote=EmilyHicks]The question is, why buy at $425k and then immediately sell it at a loss?[/quote]
I’m not sure this happened.

Redfin’s sales history shows a sale on 11/30 for $405k. Sdlookup shows it as $425k. It had been listed at $425k.
http://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Diego/8990-Brentford-Ave-92126/home/4798406

What’s interesting is I looked at the grant deed recordings and found the following.

Kucan & Clark purchased the property on Sept 30th. The previous owners had had an NOD filed against them in May 2009, and NOT in June 2010. In other words they were headed towards foreclosure. It also appears they were going through divorce according to court records. That is probably the cause of some of their financial distress. (Divorce is expensive.)

I do not show any grant deed transfers for the 11/30/2010 date from K&C. Since redfin shows the same $405 price, I don’t know what is going on with that sale. I did not go looking at Clark or Kukan’s grant recordings… just the partnership.

I show a grant deed recorded on 1/6/2011 from K&C to (presumeably) the new owner.

I would take that $425k price on 11/30 and disregard it. It appears to be an error. Maybe one of the realtors can weigh in and explain it.
