Dellusional seller of the month


I can't believe there are still people out there that try for peak prices in today's market. Then there are sellers like this tool that try for even more than that. You can tell by the incredibly bad listing that even the agent doesn't want to waste time on this pointless exercise. What kind of thought process must you have to list a home for triple the price of the nearby homes. I just don't get it.

5963 Pingrove Pl, Corona, it's over in Eastvale aka foreclosure central. This dreamer buys his place in late 2006 for $683k. Yup, that's about as peak as it gets! His 2 years are up, and now he wants his $200k paycheck. That's the same plan most of the other buyers in 2006 had. Damn the foreclosures, his house is different and the dreamer has listed it for $899k!. That's only about triple what the other places in the area are going for....

I will ask again, "why do agents take these listings?"

In that zip code, there are 472 listings, of which 273 are short sales. Yikes!

The really good thing about the cow chit smell in Eastvale is that when you have a few hot sunny days it dries out, then you get swarms of flies and when the winds kicks up, the cow chit dust blows around and you get to breath it and it gets inside your home, in your carpet, on your bed and pillow, in your eggs and bacon while they fry... oh wait, maybe that's not a good thing?

Mi casa ain't your casa...I see a few of this realty company's signs in the front lawns of Corona homes...what's funny is that I never see the signs go away....

Want delusion? try 8102 Branding Iron Ln in Riverside's 92508 (Orange Crest). Recent sales show it sold January '09 for 760K after being listed recently for high 300s

What's the new scam?

Somebody needs to show that guy his Redfin.com listing and have him scroll down the the little graphic of the value of nearby houses. But they should have paramedics standing by.
