Rolo, I know you already get a lot of slack on this board. However, from a scientific method perspective, you cannot take data and MAKE it significant or "meaningful" as you said above. The entire point of looking at data is to see if there actually IS a trend or a something that has...

Notable? The realtor and the car salesman?

RoLo... the closed # that you list every 4 months or so, is that per month or over that 4 month duration?

I see that quite a few of those City Walk units are up for sale. Do you (or anyone) know if you're allowed to sublet the retail part of the unit? It would seem odd if not, but you never know. Also, shouldn't there be a pretty high percentage of tenants that are underwater already? Since 2007, I...

I know the Toll Roads had 4 new cell phone towers installed, so that probably is what you are seeing. I agree... I always lose service on the 241.

I visited the Latitudes sales office again this weekend to walk the largest unit one more time and thought I'd share my experience. I had emailed one of their sales agents with a question about two weeks ago. I received no response whatsoever. Interestingly enough, that same sales agent was...

Awesome!!! Reminds me of Ben Stiller's character in Happy Gilmore. "you will go to sleep or I will put you to sleep"

This thread reminds me of the OC Register Real Estate blogs. Short on substance and big on jabs. Ok... I'm done.

Again, I'm not a real estate agent/professional, but I do love stats & graphs. Given the high seasonality of real estate, shouldn't we have seen an actual up-tick in the $/sqft in recent months??? Not just a leveling off? Is there not increased buying pressure in the summer that therefore...

Seriously... who do these people think they are? He was a CAR SALESMAN.... and he has three cars all over $60k? I know juniors in high school with better financial management skills than this. (disclaimer. I have nothing against car salesman, but unless you're the Jon McGonigle of car sales. oh...

When I see a city like Aliso Viejo with a percentage like 219.4%, are you saying that there are more than twice as many units in escrow than are even listed right now? Now again, this isn't taking into account the percentage of units that fall through escrow, correct? To me, a number like this...

Alinea at home is a good blog in the form of the new Julie & Julia movie. She cooks her way through various cookbooks. She previously did The French Laundry cookbook. http://www.alineaathome.com/ (I once tried a French Laundry recipe. Wow, it was difficult)

Is it odd that he defends the OC Housewives, but questions the admin on this site? Just saying...

I will put down to OC Housewife "cast" any day of the week and not feel a bit of shame about it. When you sell yourself out just to be a "star" on a reality TV show, you are asking for opinions. That's the only reason people watch those shows anyway because everyone has an opinion when it comes...

It's freakin' hilarious. They have this swagger about them that is completely undeserved. P.S. with all these SC logos, I had to finally represent the alma mater. :-)
