Well during bubbles it doesn't matter where you build fools will come and buy, near me they are breaking ground on huge condo developments with more cheesecake factories and tgifs along with more retails stores, with millions of houses in foreclosure and plenty of empty store fronts they are still building, doesn't make any sense to me, I guess they still believe the housing boom is here or they think they will catch the next wave of buying interest, sorry to say but housing isn't turning around for at least another 10+ years or longer.

Bottom fishing.
Less than 3 months ago someone bought this as a foreclosure. Appears as though they're down $10,000 already.
Bottom fishing can hurt.
Tempting to bid $16,000 just to see if he'll hit it.
The real question is...what did he find out about the place after 2 months that made him willing to lose $10k on it instead of just renting it out for $500 per month?
Exactly.
Another thing worth mentioning (might not apply in this particular instance), but once you start dealing with condo's and those HOA's, you can find yourself in deep shit pretty quickly. I wouldn't even venture to guess how many HOA's are essentially bankrupt in Florida, Nevada and other busted out states. That is one of the main reasons why these properties are selling for next to nothing...because it's very possible that the HOA's are about do default and the assessments could be jacked sky high to offset all of the other foreclosed properties in the association.
