Comments (31)We've sold a number of houses and each time, if we were not at work, I would take the dog for a walk and my wife would go sit out on the front porch. She would tell the realtor if they had any questions to ask away and left them alone. The last house we sold worked quite well. The buyers came out and sat down with my wife and just had some generic questions. When they came back for another look, I was there too. We all sat on the front porch and we talked about the community, how well the roads were plowed in winter, the neighbors, etc. They stayed for almost an hour. The following day we got a full price cash offer with no contingencies. No inspection, no nothing. It's been over 12 years, and they're still there....See MoreWelcome to Stockton: foreclosure capital USA
Comments (40)Actually, I don't think Greenspan is the villain in this. I repeat - the Fed has very little control over the securitization of bundled mortgage loans. They are repackaged into equity deals and are collateralized by the RE. Yes, in some areas of the US that RE has fallen in value. But in most areas of the US it has not dropped drastically, and even a 25% decline eventually works itself out through the system. The US simply has too large and global an economy for it to be more than a big burp in the overall history. I do fault Greenspan for keeping rates low too long, but hindsight is always so much better than foresight. Why should he be any different than us folks at the forum - where are all those posters here who declared one could never lose money in RE? And the hysteria over banks is amusing. There is NO CASH CRUNCH. Banks are flush with money, as are most companies. There is a liquidity crunch, which is a thing entirely different. Wells Fargo had very little exposure to subprime loans; they securitize and sell most of their loans to other servicers. WaMu recently added to their loan loss reserve but their core business, checking and savings, is booming like gangbusters and they will have no trouble opening all the new branches they plan to start in 2007-2008. Actually, if I were investing in individual stocks, which I don't, I'd buy Goldman Sachs in a heartbeat. The liquidity messiness has really depressed its stock price and they are the premier deal-broker in the world. Now, when they start jumping out of their windows, then I'll worry! As for RE agents fleeing the field, most of those were part-time and newcomers anyway. It's always been a boom-and-bust business, and probably always will be. We saw the same thing happen in the 1990's. People have such short memories! The vast majority of Americans have pretty much the same amount in their checking and savings accounts as they had two months ago. The vast majority of American, Asian and European corporations can say the same. The only thing changed are people's perceptions, as fed by the media....See Morewelcome to the neighborhood gift??
Comments (19)Young couple? A gift certificate to the local neighborhood bar where people like to hang out. One that's known for both their drink selection AND their food--that way even if they don't drink, they can go for a nice meal. That's what we left our buyers--they'd heard about the great place we liked, and were looking forward to trying it. Nicest welcome gift we got at the new house? About a week before settlement, we had tons to do, of course--at both places. We went tearing down (an hour+ each way) to the new place, knowing the grass was about a week overdue for cutting. It's a large property and takes us both almost a full day to cut, if we BOTH work simultaneously (we each have our own mower). What a lovely surprise we got when we pulled into the driveway, took a look around and realized SOMEONE had cut the entire place for us--except the edges. That narrowed it down to someone with a ride-on mower. One of our neighbors across the street had come over and done the bulk of the work for us. It was SUCH a blessing and saved us so much time. Even if they're already in, I bet they'd welcome some help. Otherwise, a plate of baked goods. If you're worried about diet, allergies or other food issues--how about a basket of local produce (with the name of the best farm market in the area) or a bottle of local wine? Since our buyers were from out of state, I included a bottle of our favorite green apple wine with their gc. Or any other local favorites--we have great bakeries, a 'homemade' pasta factory, etc. which make nice welcome to the neighborhood gifts. We did get a gc to a very nice local restaurant from some of our new neighbors, as well--nice to have an evening when we didn't have to cook....See Morejy_md
