    Northpark Flip: 2 Malibu

    You know what. I've changed my mind, Indie. You're 100% right and I'm 100% wrong. You win! The post linked to by USC and referenced by NonFcb is very damning. So damning in fact, that he'll never work again a day in his life. Anyone who previously considered using him, has now fled. His work...

    Agreed. There is nothing new that can be said. Back to the property in question.  ;)

    Northpark Flip: 2 Malibu

    Read again. I said my "initial" comment. This one:http://www.talkirvine.com/index.php?topic=1590.msg21476#msg21476 What you are reading is not my initial comment. Initial means "first". Did you know that? My first comment on the topic of NonFcb's post. What is hard to understand about that? I'll...

    Northpark Flip: 2 Malibu

    That is not at all what I'm trying to "argue". My initial comment was that for me, I take it into consideration but I do my own thinking. For me , a trivial remark exploring options on how to potentially settle finances, has zilch to do with how good of a realtor someone is. You are entitled to...

    The answer to this is simple. His credit worthiness can be legitimately verified through a credit check. A serious, potential business partner does not rely only on the heresay of message board highschool gossip. Your credit worthiness is not defined by what an anonymous soul on a board says you...

    Indie, I get that you're a troll, but at least pick one side and stick with it rather than flip-flopping back and forth. You were taking NonFcb to task for "slandering" USC. Now you are the one trying to pick out his faults about how he could be "untouchable." Which is it. Defend him or don't...

    I will agree with you on the principle that having good credit worthiness is essential in some occupations. For example: obtaining security clearance, as I know from my own line of work. The mistake you are making here is that: A) You do not know if he has "ruined credit". You are jumping to...

    Northpark Flip: 2 Malibu

    Who cares if it is or is not him. I like USC but I DO believe it is him.  Like I said, though, I don't care if it is. What relevance does it have if it is him? All it says is that he's discussing ways to restructure debt. Big deal. None of it matters to me. I've had credit card debt. We all do...

    Excuse me? You have been just as much of an instigator as he has. Who are you to critique. Pot, meet kettle.

    Irvine homebuying down 11%

    Why is it disgusting that what he said is a fact? Kids aren't free. Financial sacrifices in exchange for raising children exists. I have a child. I should know. If Iho was telling his kid, "I wish you were never born so I could have my three car garage" that would be one thing and yes, that...

    First time home buyers - Lessons learnt

    According to some personal finance experts like Liz Pulliam Weston from MSN Money, we should not be in a hurry to pay down our mortgage. "There are situations where paying down a mortgage makes sense, such as when you're approaching retirement or when reducing your principal will get you a...

    First time home buyers - Lessons learnt

    Careful. Subleasing is a violation of some rental agreements. Yeah, I know you might not care by that point since you are about to move out, but I'm just gonna throw it out there especially if it impacts your subrenter.

    Poll: Source of down payments

    Two sources for me. Saving the old fashioned way plus "equity" from sale of previous home. I put equity in quotes because even though I got an okay check at closing, once I factor in how much I spent putting into the plaec doing upgrades and repairs, I can't say it got me way ahead of the game.

    First time home buyers - Lessons learnt

    Sgip, why do you not recommend fha for 30 yr fixed? Is it because the APR is too high by comparison? I do not understand why Amerisave shows similar rates and fees between conventional and fha / referring to post above. Wherever I check rates such as Wells...
