Where'd they go?


Where did all those million dollar homes go? (I ask in jest). Last year if you looked up in Amberhill or Crown Ranch areas of Corona nearly everything was a million dollars or more. There were a few listed for under a million but not many. Now it's quite the opposite (as it should be). In the Amberhill/Crown area there is only ONE home listed for over a million. It's a short sale and probably has no hope, especially since the listing has zero pictures of the home.

The other 10 listings in that area are all between $700k and $900k. Still way too high in my opinion. Those homes should all be $600k max and the majority of them should be no higher than $500k. At that price they would still be twice the price what the average Corona tract home will probably be selling for in a couple of years.

It must really tear up those homeowners that thought they were living the "champagne wishes and caviar dreams" lifestyle.....in Corona...

I'm not sure how I feel on this subject. I'm sure some of those people really thought they were doing the right thing and saved up to try and better their life style. But I know most of them rolled the dice, buying far more than they could ever hope to pay for. I'm not completely heartless. If sympathy is warranted that's fine, I will feel sorry for them. People that bought a home they could afford and due to job loss or health issues deserve some slack. But those people are a small minority. And some of that minority would not be in that situation if it were not for the vast majority that have destroyed the US economy causing the job losses.

I have ZERO sympathy for the 95% of the people that bought more than they could afford. They F'd it up for the rest of us and we shouldn't feel sorry for them, we should be pissed off at them. They should be voted off the island!

Yep it's definitely time to vote. Let's see what Tribal Council has for us today. Uh-oh, David Kellerman has many votes. Do you have the immunity idol Mr. Kellerman? Well ain't that a bitch. It's time to go Davie (Reaper snuffs Davie's torch and helps him down from his noose, then walks with him down the dark cold path...)
