Ding Dong...It's not Avon

Had a handful of agents walking around in our area lately asking if we're interested in selling.  It's usually they have clients that want to buy but no houses available in this area crap.  Anyone else getting these house calls?  It must be the bubble?

Tell them you want $200k above current market price!

Yup, one of my clients had the same thing happen to them as did I.  I told them that I was a realtor and that I already have my own buyers who would probably buy my home.  haha  This was in addition to the handful of letters they are sending out asking for listings.

During the last bubble, there was enough inventory to deal with demand... this one there is barely anything which is stacking the deck for TIC and anyone else building new homes in Irvine.

I have a "make me move" price in mind and will gladly sell my house if someone offers it.

Me too. It's roughly $600K above current market.

I'd then call baby panda and get a sweet place out there.

O.K., I'm writing down the steps here. LOL.

If I offer $200K over current market and laugh them off and the next day he/she is back with a FCB with suitcase full of cash, what to do next?

The next day the price goes up to $300k over current market price.  haha

Haha! There are high chances of this happening. Bub-bub-bubble! Seller's dream, buyer's nightmare
Move to Tustin. Go to TUSD's Irvine schools

Duh! Qwerty knows now. You cannot flame..finding something else to pick on, like the land where you can't dig deeper ;-)

 

[irvinehusky]

I like that.

Should I ask the FCB to leave his/her high end BMW/MB on my driveway as well?

I used to live in Tustin Ranch so I do like that area especially up north but they're just as expensive as Irvine now, especially that community near Cedar Grove? park.  The one across from Tustin Ranch Estates    :-* which is very nice but alas... I wish I had the money then to purchase in Tustin Ranch Estates when they were around $700 or $800K (maybe I'm remembering wrong but I thought they were selling under a mil. then).

El Dorado.. with a view of city lights from the backyard. That's what I want..
Yes, Tustin Ranch caught up pretty quickly- lets all move to Foothill Ranch - the next best thing!

Nope, this is IRVINE we are talking about here.

Oh, it's Irvine...

Put in a WTH price on Zillow's "Make Me Move" just to see if someone parachutes in with a suitcase full of JPY. Tell them you'll take $10,000 of the price if they bring physical gold/silver.

Homes in my area (RSM) have gone from the upper 5's to the low 6's. I still feel sorry for the guy up the road who paid $800k in 2007 but when I lay down for a while and nap a bit that feeling goes away.  I'm thinking of putting up a "Make Me Move" for $708,888 and see what materializes. I'd become a renter if my price was met.

Do real people really reply to those "Make Me Move" things?  I did a while ago in a extreme buyers' market (I was the seller then, unfortunately) up north a few years ago but all I got were agents trying to get my business, telling me I should dump my present one and that they were the ones that could magically sell my house. 

Just for fun, I checked around my area and the going rate for the Make me move is about $100 too $300K over the Zestimate prices for the house with a few big dreamers wanting 2 to 3 million for their $500K houses.  Maybe people are reading our threads and learning from us?
