Both might kill you, but, you won't get an STD from the Bugatti! :D

That doesn't really happen any more. The length of hose and size are both mandated. Smokey used to do that and that's why there is a rule against coiling up line in the car.

I used to sell snowboard gear on Flea Bag... they were eating more than 33% of my Gross Profit to sell with listing, final value and paypal fees. Yes I got exposure country wide, but, the cost became prohibitive. I closed up and don't sell anymore.

SM Maybe you think you've reached a bottom in YOUR area... Not a chance in hell we are close to a bottom here... so again the regional/local issue rears it's ugly head. California has a LONG way to go before hitting bottom. Especially with the new fannie/freddie underwriting...

IIRC, past sales number were YoY and I think this was reported on prior month basis. The numbers are down compared to same period one year ago. And think they have until sept to get the rest of the suckers in before Fannie and Freddie tighten up on the liar loans. I expect a hard push by...

...or don't throw it and get someone killed. Very smart I was watching something and Fat Helton was on talking about the reason they didn't throw the caution was the cars involved were spinning to the inside of the track... PURE RUBBISH. Kenseth slid from the middle groove up to the wall...

In my neighborhood prices are off 20-30% from the highs. 550K to 400K Is that a correction or a crash? Homes are still on the market after over 1 year being actively listed. Funny that the 1+ million $ homes are still selling at a brisk pace keeping median prices up. A friend is...

Zillow for the most part is an absolute joke. The house I currently rent would sell if they got a sucker to buy it for about 380-400 range... zillow says it's worth 526K ROTFLMAO... It's another tool for people to think their homes are worth more than they are IMHO. In sopme areas it...

When the show first aired, the expectation was very close to the offers. Now the house offers much lower than the expectation

Can't stand the show... The times I've seen it, my favorite scenario is as folows. Say, 5 cases left, only one case above 100K, say 750K, remainder of cases are under 10K, gets an offer in the low 6 figures (100-125K) and turns it down... Ummmm OK!

Housing is a REGIONAL market, always has been, always will be. You invest in Real Estate and know better. A family in OK, TX or NE doesn't give two rats A$$e$ about what is occurring in the coast states, unless they are moving there. If that chart isn't from an independent source, other...

I only care about housing in MY AREA.... National numbers don't mean SH!T!!!! Why is that so hard for some people to understand. We are down at least 20-25% from the peak in my neighborhood with plenty more to go. Qualified former renters already bought a place. The pool of buyer is...

I saw a blurb on CNBC today, they are giving him an achievment award or some nonsense. The greatest US bubble blower of all time!

Here is an interesting article about an area of CA that will get killed http://www.pe.com/breakingnews/local/stories/PE_Biz_D_foreclosuresweb25.4e369b8.html I read that the normal rate of notice of default (NOD) to foreclosure sale was in the 8-12% in bad times. Right now the rate is...

Median price quoting is crap!!! I can tell you where I live, high end/custom market is cruising right along 900K+. Anything under 550-600K, working class level, sits on the market FOREVER unless priced really right. The pool of qualified buyers is GONE! Homes here have been on the market...

Hit the nail on the head with that one. I hate the "I'm so happy to see you." fake hug crap and then they turn around and tell the person they're with, "I hate that SOB." Phoniest POS on earth as far as I'm concerned.

18 months ago you'd be lucky to see one public notice regarding Trustee sales around here. Now there are 5-12 everyday they are published.

Walked in to the sales office and asked. I bet if I said 340 with the 37K rebate, they'd take it as well.

Builder here is trying to sell the last few units for 373K with a 37K rebate = net 336. Same floorplan as being solid by other prior owners in the 400K range. The builders homes are loaded with upgrades, resale homes are base models. Makes total sense to me that the resale homes aren't...
