Regarding what to offer: always keep in mind that the market is determined by what a buyer is willing to pay, not what the seller is asking. To determine a whether your $300K offer is reasonable, study what similar homes have sold for in the last 90-days. Regarding foreclosures, REO's and short sales...they are not always the deals most people think they are. Particularly now, while foreclosures are up, banks are not yet overwhelmed by properties they have taken back. So, banks are still looking to recoup their losses and not just "move" the property.
If you'd like some more guidance on what to offer, feel free to contact me. - Sat Sep 29 2007, 06:27
For a good atmosphere, good food and affordable prices try Nicki Rotten's on Fifth. Another great place is the Gaslamp Strip Club. It's pricier, and you have to cook your own food (part of the charm), but it is a fun place, particularly if your with a few of your friends. - Sat Sep 29 2007, 06:08
