Participant[quote=CONCHO]RP will not win. They have played and exhausted the “ignore” card. Now they will play the “attack” card. Soon we will hear that he is a racist who worships Aqua Buddha. If that does not fix the problem, they will play the “Diebold” card.[/quote]
Not sure how effective the Aqua Buddha card will be, his son was still elected.But the Diebold card could well work…

ParticipantFor our granny flat project we had significant hillside work – 2 seriously engineered cmu walls, and some smaller gravity walls. Here are my thoughts.
You have a footing of some kind with all of them – including the stacked block… it has to be dug out and the first course started below grade or it can shift/slip etc. Saving you on all three walls is that the wall is only 3 feet high – so not a huge footing for any of them. (We had some seriously huge footings on our project…. but they’re holding up a building slab.)
Keeping the dirt onsite is a huge saver. There is an entire sub-industry in construction buying/selling/moving fill dirt. As consumers, you pay to remove dirt and we pay to import dirt. If you can make the dirt net out even by not exporting/importing that’s a good thing.
Our super engineered CMU walls have a stucco coat. They’re ok looking… They work with the setting. We had some issues with the stucco coming off – but the contractor addressed that.
We used a Keystone Legacy block for our smaller walls… I don’t think they’re ugly, but that’s a personal taste/preference. We planted stuff that kind of laps over the top and it looks nice.

ParticipantA better description/headline for this topic would be something along the lines of “A case for ending home financing subsidies.”
It’s possible to be a home OWNER and not get the benefits (other than deductible prop taxes.) It’s called having a paid for home.
I don’t mind eliminating the mortgage interest deduction… But then again, I’m on the fast track to paying off my mortgage. My interest deduction is getting whittled away pretty fast.

From this you can see that it was purchased previously in Jan 2003. That owner put it on the market on Feb 10, 2011, changed the price 2/15/2011, and took it off the market on 3/14/2011. So they had it listed for sale for just over a month, it foreclosed a month later.Are you asking what the MLS # was – or want to see the listing from that sale – you’ll have to google. You look for an MLS# that starts with 11 (for 2011) and is different than the current mls#.
I found one that appears to be a listing from when it was first foreclosed:
http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-110033010-6053_Greenhedge_La_Jolla_CA_92037And I found one from before the foreclosure, here.
