Agent is playing games to trigger price alerts set up. I believe they are trying to do an "auction" style sale for this property.
Wow, $3.8m asking price and only 3 pictures of the home? Is it me or does that driveway look really small too? Yeah, this one isn't going to escrow anytime soon.
Not just three pics but there are two different elevation photo's. Not the same home! Terrible stacked up yard. ??? This needs to be added to the WTF asking price topic!! ;D
It's definitely a bifurcated market. Plenty of folks with money to burn who are willing to pay up for premium lots. But, those on the fringes of the price point are not stepping up to close the deal.
This reminds me of the trough period with Laguna Altura. It'd be interesting to see if those buyers will live to regret not pulling the trigger like many who held off on LA. Given that homes in LA on tiny lots are going for $610+/sqft. Non-premium HC homes seem like a no brainer deal, if you can afford it.

$2M+ buyers are usually not 1st time home buyers, so, they are looking for something to either upgrade or downgrade from where they currently live.
So, as long as the homesite has that "something", it is still very HOT.
All the Marbella homes went to "reserved" status within a day or 2 after the release, that's just amazing. Proving HC's value and its attractiveness.
Believe the view lots are cash purchases as well....

Latest Capri price sheet. All the homes except these QDH have been spoken for.
The funny thing is the sales lady told me that lot 13 is taking longer to sell because many folks refuse to consider it because of the number. I told her that's pretty ridiculous to me since nobody will even know the lot number after escrow closes. But, true to superstition, 3 buyers have already fallen out. They finally have a buyer that looks pretty solid. Maybe it's not superstition after all?

Price sheet from new release on Amber Sky this weekend.
Obviously, view lots have a price premium. But, many of the lots are on the smaller side, 6000 sqft or less. The upside compared to similar inside lots on Iron Gate is that the house behind them will be higher up and father back. But, unlike QDHs they don't have any incentives. Sales must have a lot of confidence in the buyer of lots 238 and 239 since both are reserved and they didn't even bother to list the price.
Finally, I'm surprised that lot 237 is priced so low. The lots is actually a bit bigger than others on that side of the street but has the lowest price. Plus, the way the house in the lot behind it is positioned is such that there will not be a house directly overlooking it, just the yard. Not bad.
