Dude, buy a single family house in north-west Dublin for $400k. Older homes, 3-4 bdrm, 2 baths, 1250-1500 sq. ft on 5000-8000 sq ft lots. Much better appreciation in the long run and no HOA. - Mon Jul 7 2008, 22:34

Cindy,

I couldn't have picked a better place to buy. Danville has great schools and is comprised of the affluent with nearby homes in the million plus plus dollar range. My home sold for $540k just two years ago. I bought in $300's. Mine is the lowest price 3 bdrm 2 bth home in Danville. Rental market is phenomenal due to foreclosures of high priced homes in the area. Those in foreclosure have to live somewhere and most desire to remain in Danville. I live in the next town over and I absolutely know the demographics of Danville and I am confident that this one's a winner. - Mon Jul 7 2008, 21:04

Uninterested in interest rates...bottom schmottom. The bottom is where the media says it is. If they said the bottom was today, you'd have a half a million people go out and buy a home tomorrow. My God, every time someone is about to predict the fallout of the real estate market based on interest only loans makes me wanna gag...no gag their mouths. There are a lot of people like me who can well afford a fixed rate 30 year term, who choose not to because I have better things to do with my money. How many people are about to retire, sell their home and move, and knew it 5 years ago and didn't want a higher fixed rate! Not all homeowners will lose their homes, just refi into another interest only loan, albeit at a higher rate than a few years ago. - Sun Jul 6 2008, 20:30

NO! I had a friend who lived there. She came home one day and heard a noise...found someone trying to hide under a bathroom vanity. The kid bolted out of the house. Scared the H-E-Double toothpicks outta her. She moved to San Ramon. - Sun Jul 6 2008, 20:10

When will mountain house get shopping and grocries stores and more info on the new high school.?

Asked Mon Jan 14 2008, 14:28 by Thomas - Mountain House - Shopping & Local Amenities - 8 answers

Be-elzebub answered:

Fuggedaboudit. They've got this puny little store, not even as big as a 7-11. If Mountain House had a decent commercial building, someone would make a killing opening a market with maybe 1000 sq ft of space and just basic food items, milk, eggs, bread, soda, beer, cereal, frozen tv dinners, etc. You can go to the nice Safeway on 11th and Corral Hollow. They even have a bank inside open 7 days a week.

As for now, the grandiose plans for MH will not materialize in the current real estate market. Too many homes languishing on the resale market and developers scaling back production of new homes. MH is for now just another bedroom community. - Thu Jan 24 2008, 22:27
