[quote author="ipoplaya" date=1227057039][quote author="WestparkRenter" date=1227052598]Wait until it comes to you and literally begs for you to buy. Look at 35 calaveras, the house that's on the blog. I looked at this house in Spring of 2004 and it was sold so fast for $900K. In Fall 2004, similar house in the neighborhood came down slightly and it was sold 5% less but I was not convinced it was a good buy. I want to pay lower property tax. Today in 2008, it is nearly $200K off. Much more affordable and I have saved a lot since then by not buying. This neighborhood will come down to 2001 prices and then you can put in 50%. Patience has never been my virtue but it's look like I might have to embrace it.</blockquote>
35 Calavera is a low lister and will sell for much more, definitely over $850K, maybe over $900K.</blockquote>
There are always KCs out there. I won't compete with them. I did not compete in 2004 and I won't now.
2 Calavera did not sell over $900k and it was bought for $880K in 2004. EDIT it was sold for exactly $880K in 2008. 4 years of paying high rent. That's it.
56 Calavera was sold for $872K in 2008.
