Here's a knife just waiting for someone to reach out and grab it from the air.
Sold new;

Now on Redfin for $417,000.
$167,454 and 16 months later. Imagine waking up every morning $300 poorer and making a daily house payments of $150. And that's if they get the price.

Wasn't that area a floodplain first, before they decided to build on it?
Can you offer any tips on how I can fraudulently buy this property?
I can't talk with any lenders any more -- my name is Google poison, my FICO score is about 400, I have six foreclosures on my credit report, and most people can identify me by sight or by the horrific B.O. I give off...
Anyway, $50,000 in cash back would be a good income for me in 2008. Any help...? ;-)

It still is.
So the buyer can get literally underwater in addition to the metaphorical sense.
The real question is does that turd spin clockwise or counterclock wise when the swollen river takes it out to sea.

Have you done your 2007 taxes yet?
Maybe we can get you published under fiction or comedy by your Vegas buddy

2007 taxes, are you serious? I never even filed my taxes in 2006! The CPA I talked with wanted gobs of money to deal with my hellish financial situation. Since my Mom won't let me steal any more cash from her, I just told the CPA that income taxes are illegal and that I wouldn't be filing anymore. He begged me to reconsider but I think he was bluffing... I'll check into it. :-)
Now, if you'll excuse me, I just learned my brother's SSN, so I'll be applying for more sweet, juicy credit lines. It's all good!!
More NAR lies... it's flat now, but it'll get better at the end of the year... really, we promise! Please buy a house.

My estimate is that Reliiters earned almost $40 billion with a B less in 2007 than in 2006. No BMW for them this year.
It will thin the herd. Needs it too - just like when you get a stock tip from the bagboy at the grocers, it's time to get out of the market; when the same bagboy starts to sell real estate, the market is going to crash.
Professionals will last through the down turn, the newbies will get killed.
Lots of jobs available in the repossession industry. Maybe this is where a lot of realittors came from in the first place?

I look forward to the repo shows on Lifetime.
daily house payments of $150...
Ahem, excuse me, did you say daily? Egad, that's like $4500 per month. Calis are uber wealthy.
Imagine paying $4,500 a month and then finding out that the developer is building homes for extremely-low-income families. Families making $17,000 a year will be your neighbors. In Oxnard that means gangbangers and wanna-be's. Maybe your kids can hang out at the park together.
Yep, PITI when purchased for close to $600k would have been about $150 per day. Then your 'equity' would be evaporating at an additional $300/day.
And yes. There is a gangbanger relocation assistance program. See; http://www.redfin.com/stingray/do/printable-listing?listing-id=1549998
That's what they get for not working an extra weekend every month.
Driving down to the boat yesterday, I had on a Boston radio station.
They ran an ad for a new book on flipping houses. I almost drove off the road laughing.
No, it was not the much delayed/ballyhooed book by KC, but instead, from some dolt who used to flip houses on TV.
Amazing to think someone would even consider such an opportunity even with a pitch line "Yeah the housing market is down, but that is when you get the best deals on properities.

Rob et al., don't worry so much about the "affordable housing" initiatives. At least here on the East Coast, it's well known that they're gamed by people from the middle and upper middle class, primarily students, but also wealthy retirees, people with high but variable income, etc. Worry not, most of those "maximum household income of $50k" units will get filled in by law students, trust fund babies, corporate salespeople, day traders, etc.
pv, no law student, trust fund baby, corporate salesman, or day trader would be caught dead in Riverpark.
