my parents installed one a few years back and it is SWEET - they are really happy with it and the maintenance on it has been so easy (or non existent?) that it has never been mentioned to me and it WOULD have been complained about. I certainly heard plenty about hte saltwater pool (which they...

man, you people get snippy when i'm not around.  Did they start putting testosterone (or would it be estrogen) in the water?  Is the idea of overeating massively next week filling you with rage? 

And you would be wrong - people buying at that level are a different breed, they probably SHOULD care but for the most part it really isn't as big of a concern. It is your agents job to help you buy what you want to buy.  It is not your agents job to give you financial advice.  Many of them...

woah..you get busy for a few days and .... Thanks IR2 that was a really helpful post.  Thanks for the link too -- I wish the banks would add COUNTY searches to their sites, it wouldn't really be that hard or costly. Still can't decide what to do.  We still really like it, we know we can...

I have no idea - every HOA is run differently.  It doesn't soundl ike you are doing anything that needs city permits though so I wouldnt' worry about that (not building any structures or anyhting right?).  It should just be submitting a plan to the HOA, they'll get an approval on it, and that...

on the flip side, wihtout the new inventory would more people have purchased resales?

There is SOOO much property in vegas available for both rent and sale...  and your rental pool is kind of transient.  Plus who knows when their economy will be back - it could be years.  eventually those 15% unemployed people are going to pick up and go elsewhere.  Its not like las vegas is a...

So how long are they taking generally in your experience, USCT?  I'm aware of the tactic of listing things way lower than the price you actually expect, but if people are delusional enough to think that 1000 sqft on a 4000 sqft lot is worth 450,000 dollars, then they can have it.    We saw a...

So as some may have seen, we saw a house yesterday that we LOVE but that we are not sure we actually WANT, but its in that very first step of the short sale where they toss up the listing, gather a bunch of offers, and ship them to the bank to see what happens. Here is my high level...

yeah you probably need HOA approval for that - I mean imagine if your next door neighbors JUST wanted to install a cactus garden.  You'd want them to get approval (And get denied) probably.  Maybe your neighbors hate grass.

they asked me (and luckily I had asked) but I didn't even notice her checking it.  Maybe she had it on her screen already and just glanced at it - I didn't give her dates but I did tell her "monday-tues-wed and then some of us did friday but the tickets are all mixed up so i'm not sure which are...

nope, I watch very little television due to being unwilling to pay for cable or satellite.  So we only watch shows we are interested enough to seek out dvds/netflix/downloads for.

*foam*  Gigantic post lost....so lazy..ok recap: Iphone4 feels like a brick to me.  the incredible feels incredible.  I felt the same as IHO about the EVO but I saw a guy with one at a Gogol Bordello show and its pretty sweet, and he was certainly just carrying it around in his pockets...

Nah its just that for the generation of kids that grew up with standardized tests with results that say things like "you are in the 99th percentile in Language and 98th percentile in math" as soon as they added that "your credit score is better than XX% of people your age" you realized that if...

we got an AWESOME hookup for Dland this year, and you might be able to make it work if you can find someone you trust enough in a similar situation. My friend's family came out from Utah and bought 3 day parkhopper passes, which came with an upgrade to 5 day park hoppers for the same price. ...
