Those little purple spots are REOs. The green spots are supposedly regular MLS listings but it is often hard to really tell. Short sales are such a pain sellers don't mention it anymore. Flips 6 weeks out of foreclosure are looking to appear normal. Certainly in this neighborhood anyone who bought retail is severely impaired.
It's raining knives. Let's drill down on some of these.
9001 Seal Beach Dr$175k.
Wow! lowest price in the area, Just reduced.
Lowest priced? Really? Check out:

Or:
13032 Napa Ct
$139k.
You all need to go to the Redfin search and look at the original purchase prices and first sale dates and such. 13032 Napa Ct; Last Sale: $345,000 (03/01/2006)
Near new, sitting unsold for 5 months at less than $50/sf. Of course if you pick up this sweet deal expect to pay $500/month in taxes. Yep, California, land of the 1% Prop 13 tax and you get saddled with 4%, higher than Texas.

First, can you explain how taxes get to 4% from the Prop 13 1% max?
They're the government. They calculate the market value as what a "rational" market would buy it for. Same as they price the assets for the TARP.
Are there really Elm trees in SoCal?

September of 07 was back to the bank. I followed this house from a listing price of 210K all the way till it dropped off 14 months later at 85K...As of today this place might bring 60K. Maybe.

Can ya spot the bubble:)?
I see Mr. DJ has gotten back in bed with the strange attractor Ms. 7800.
Hey Wagga!,
I was just thinking of you.
Anyway. You are correct sir. I was going to make one of those annoying smug posts where I mention how I predicted the Obama bounce back to the higher strange attractor. This is it. Could it get 200 more? Absolutely? More than that? NFW. 1200, let me repeat tweleve hundred points down is the next trend. 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months? Answer, yes. Possibly as soon as a few days or possibly put off until June but certainly within that range. Stocks are now commanding prices 20%+ more than tw oweeks ago because.... ummmm... welll... no reason. I should back track on one bit. Some stocks are worth more because the government has intervened. More later.
Is that extra 3% due to Mello-Roos? Out there??? Also, WTH is a "Land Fee"?
Went to the site and noticed the group of houses are surrounded by empty lots that'll probably be there a while. Nice.
These are way below construction cost.
