Participant[quote=lindismith]And, think of the money you’ll save on your water bill. Water rates are only going up in the coming years. It is estimated that 1/2 of water bills are due to landscapes, so I really encourage you to figure out if you can cut back.[/quote]
I agree with you, lindismith. But I heard from a person at the SD Water authority that 70% of potable water is used for irrigation. Since our water bills are tiered – the more you use, the higher rates… So if you cut your irrigation bills in half, you could save more than half of your bill.
I googled nifty fifty plants and found this great resource

ParticipantDoes this crime wave take some of the sheen and glow off of Carmel Valley?
I know bank holdups happen elsewhere… but I read so much about how perfect Carmel Valley is – above average schools, above average kids… it’s better than Lake Wobegon. Except it has banks that get robbed.

ParticipantI just came across an example of what you probably saw… a little public database record diving gave the story…
http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-100007977-6638_Wellesly_Pl_San_Diego_CA_92122
New listing – for $585k. On the comments jpinpb had noted it was shadow inventory emerging.. She’d previously noted an NOD on it.
I checked redfin and it showed a sale that didn’t show on sdlookup. On 2/1/2010 it sold for $626k.
So I looked up the property tax records using the APN on the listing.
(sdtreastax.com)
Then I took the name from the property taxes and did a grant deed lookup on that name.Bingo – there was a trustees deed on 2/1.
Since it didn’t show in fidelityasap.com (I’ve been tracking University City pretty closely – I’m pretty sure I would have seen it) I assume it was a deed in lieue of forclosure. But I could be completely wrong.Regardless, it’s a house that is now on the market and not in the shadows. Bank owned. Listed for $30k less than it was “sold” for in the trustee deed transaction.

ParticipantDo they have the same dates?
Sometimes you have back to back sales in very short order… Bank forecloses and it either sells at trustee sale or bank takes it back… that’s typically a lower price. Then if it was bought at trustee sale – the buyer lists it and sells it at market price. This can literally be just a few weeks.
