    New Homes coming to Woodbury in 2010

    Very good question! Now this is something TIC probably considered in their planning. I think they are trying to place a premium to live in Woodbury versus Woodbury East.

    Let's say Northpark or Northpark Square

    If you look at the listing posted, those are REO's and short sale listings. Maybe IPO can get their actual selling price. There's WTF pricing above the actual selling price and there's WTF pricing just to get bids for the actual selling price. If I can walk into a home that I want in...

    Woodbury East Opening July 11, 2009

    TIC is probably trying to feel the market out and going the safe route by pricing these units conservatively. It's a wait and see approach and from what they saw, they can plan accordingly after each phase. Isnt that the approach every builder uses? In a down market, up market? I think...

    Woodbury East Opening July 11, 2009

    I remember 1996, although still relatively young, I dont remember the frenzy of home buying. It was not in the everyday conversation. There weren't hundreds of cable/tv channels showing the stock market play by play analysis, telling you how to make money! I think the public has been educated to...

    A new escrow thread for a new housing market...

    Are you serious? You bought in March and you think it's going down another 15-20%. If someone saw a rosy picture, it would be someone who bought in march. If you follow the blog, IPO's been the one hoping for a different kind of picture. Why do you think he sold awhile back?

    A new escrow thread for a new housing market...

    You are ahead with the purchase and sale, not by much but... For the buyer of your home that essentially bought "at the peak", how much do you think they have lost? According to IPO comps, they are even?

    A new escrow thread for a new housing market...

    When did you buy and then sell? Like others here, you were betting the market for your house would be 20% - 30% off by now? In a few years? Looking at IPO's comps, do you think your lost the bet? Whatever the reasons...the prices are at where they are at.

    IPO - Sorry to hear this. I hope it gets better for you. I know you were fighting the decision to sell for awhile. GOOD LUCK!
