34 Shepard in the same Juliet track closed at $1.480 on 11/1/2007 or $394 / sq ft.

<p>Wow, I would much rather have 33 Triple Leaf for 18K more than 34 Shepard.</p>

I love the arch in the driveway.





It may be a McMansion, but I could live out my days perfectly happy in a place like that.

 

[EvaLSeraphim_IHB]

Except for the HOAs and Mello Roos.

 

[jwbrown77_IHB]

Yeah, no kidding.





At that point it wouldn't matter anyway, I'll never be able to afford it.

I am sorry to rehash this post but I was shocked at the new list price.





Drum roll please:





<strong>$1,359,000!!!! </strong>





Original Purchase price (12/30/2005): $1,751,000


Total: Loss (including commission): $473,540 (28% drop).


Loss (w/o commission): $392,000 (22.4% drop)





What is worse is that the price change occurred in Jan. 30. So no takers for over a month after dropping the price more than 20 percent.

<p>Problem for Triple Leaf is that the plan 2 Juliets Balcony on Twiggs took $1.285M. Even though Triple Leaf is way more upgraded, it's hard to convince a would-be buyer of that. I'd think Triple Leaf should be able to get into escrow for $1.25M if they'd take it...</p>

<p>There's a lesson here, don't ever buy the model. They are way overpriced and the over-decoration makes them less appealing to some buyers.</p>

 

[blackacre-seeker_IHB]

just checked that listing, and, apparently, it's been taken off the market. Do they read our posts? Maybe.

 

[ipoplaya_IHB]

blackacre - Which one is off the market? Triple Leaf listing appears to be active still...

33 Triple Leaf is back! A little over a year!
