I bought a car Aug 2020. No problems. Couldn't find the fridge I wanted (still back ordered now till mid Sept) so I bought the cheapest ugliest old style kenmore fridge from costco (moving again and plan on putting it in my garage and getting another one). Even went with white, lol! No problems...

Hot cpi and what is happening to bond yields? They don't think inflation is going up from here.

I experienced that myself but unless oil goes back up, we're not going to 10% interest rates. Times are different. Inflation that peaked in 1981 came after WWII. Everyone was buying like crazy with household formation increasing and new homes everywhere. Most of my friends had families with 3-4...

If I was you, I wouldn't worry about phoenix. I would start thinking there might just be the end of the world coming. LOL!

Congratulations!

I only check costco prices because they are pretty steady so I can get an idea of trend and it's easier to remember. Part of the reason we r lower here is there are quite a few near a sam's club and it seems they compete on price with Sam's usually winning by a penny. There is no costco near my...

This explains exactly why Cali tax is what it is: https://ktla.com/news/taxes-fees-make-up-1-18-per-gallon-of-gas-in-california/ Taxes: Federal Excise Tax: 18 cents per gallon State Excise Tax: 51 cents per gallon Sales Tax (estimated): 10 cents per gallon Fees: Low Carbon Gas Programs: 22...

Well off person who has his primary residence in Iowa bought a place in AZ right at the bottom after the housing bust as a snowbird home told me I'd be nuts not to buy a place in AZ at those prices. I complained it was too hot (even though my two kids already were in AZ by then) and he...

Most definately hotter in the summer but my electric bill with A/C on day and night even when I go out (which keeps me comfy but is on much less than it's not and I have no ceiling fans) is under $100. Two of my kids are here. Were it not for the kids, I would probably have kept driving east...

But will Putin do that? Anyone's guess. Will Powell raise rates like that? Gas here has dropped 64 cents from 5.49 to 4.85, (over 11.5%). Cali not so much but u get ripped off on everything. The rest of us r getting a good drop, and the rise in gas tax was not that much for ya all. When is the...

My spec home was near drywall time mid December when the builder shut construction down for the holidays. My daughters house in San Diego was a dirt lot end of January. Somehow her house was dry walled before mine and closed escrow before Memorial Day, barely after mine. At the walk thru we...

But they can get that NOW and know what interest rate will be now, not months down the road. Right now in AZ, the reason there are so many houses on the market is the builders have put spec homes on mls. Ordinarily they would be snapped up with their new phase releases, but the model there is...

I'm not in the market for an EV, so not sure this would help but have you thought about maybe trying another state that has lower gas prices and lower EV sales to get a quote? Cali has the highest demand for EVs of any state.

Looks like a total remodel! New roof? Bathroom wide enough to fit a wheelchair or walker in the shower down the road if someone needs that and u save the buyer commish of $100K!

Congrats! Now r u sure you couldn't just wait for THAT house to come down in price and get it later? LOL!!!!

I hope u got this one: https://www.redfin.com/CA/Tustin/10710-Plumas-Way-92782/home/5769067 Pretty big but when I saw that hit the market, I thought.......... this is a Martin home. lol!

Market is going to melt up, not down. Fed's hands are tied in raising rates. Government can't really afford higher rates so they'll fold like a cheap suit with another few increases which are baked in. Inflation yoy numbers are going to look not too bad (assuming gas prices don't rise too...

LOL!!!! HOW do you know when a recession is coming? What about in the 70's when there were three recessions while the fed was trying to tame inflation? Just wait till u r 10+ years older and 10 years a renter wondering if there is yet another one on the way? Then u got to depend on SOMEONE...

Congratulations!!!!!!!!

There you go with PHOENIX again. LOL! That is like saying Los Angeles and trying to say it's Irvine. So my little house I'm using as a temp house which I might give to my daughter so they can rent their house out is closed now. I'll be moving there before the big shebang in a couple weeks...
