RE #1603
1) The public records show that it's owned by a biotech executive.
2) He might be getting deployed... But that's not the reason he's selling.
3) #1603 was originally immediately listed for sale at $969,000 after the owner closed on the purchase back on 01/16/2008. It looks like the millionaires at Electra don't have that much staying power after all. It's only been 6 months so the prices are tumbling faster than I expected.
4) The decor of this unit is cheesy Realtor staging. Not the home of a military officer.

It's interesting that #1804's listing at $895,000, is clearly turning #1704 into a knife catcher.
That put #1704 (inferior unit, 1 floor below) under water.
Parcel Number: 533-532-10-70
Property Location: 700- E ST WEST #1704

#1404, purchase at $863,451 on 01/25/08 is going underwater soon.

#1804, at $895,000 also submerges the listing of #1004 at $925,000.
#1004 might as well give up.

It's a dog eat dog world out there. The seller are jumping ship and undercutting each other. And Bosa is undercutting the flippers.
What kind of building will be left in this free for all?

This seller paid $719K for the unit and are now trying to sell for $899K.
I think that the asking price is very out of line but what would you (Brian) do if you owned this unit? just let it go back to the bank?

92101Resident, in light of #1804 listing for $895,000, #1004 has no choice but to lower the price to something like $799,000 if they really want to sell now and get out unscathed. That will give still give them a cushion to cover the transaction and carrying costs.
Otherwise, #1004 might just be chasing the market down and down.
In depends what #1004 wherewithal is. How much cash in the bank do they have? How many other investment properties they have? How much do they need the profits from this unit?

Posted By Brian on 05/24/2008 2:39 PM Goingup? I'll be watching the foreclosure list to see which one of our privileged millionaire buyers end up getting their "pride" repossessed. #2503 List Price: $925,000 Purchase: $1,051,500 closed 1/29/28 Minimum loss = $126,500 + 4 years of opportunity lost on 15% deposit + transaction costs + carrying costs = Pride of ownership + bragging rights to a losing investment..... And you don't even get to live in it.

Look at the price reduction. Will this one be the first foreclosure?
I smell desperation at Electra.
Price Reduced: 07/27/2008 from $925,000-$895,000 to $800,000-$875,000

Unit 1205
The listing recently expired upon reaching 180 days. Now it's back on the market with the DOM odometer magically reset to zero. Another realtor with zero ethics who I wouldn't trust to feed my dog, let alone sell my property.
The funny thing is that they are leaving the list price at $669,000, when Unit 1705 (same floor plan) closed a few weeks ago for $619,000.
Another seller/realtor whose integrity matches their level of intelligence. |

Big City Chefs, a new food service company in town, is out to make staying home almost like an evening out. The company sends professionally trained chefs into the kitchens of busy executives, professional athletes, those with special dietary needs and just plain ol' folk who deserve a break and want a little pampering. The brainchild of two college buddies from Berkeley, David Fischbein and Tom Stiebner, Big City Chefs plans on taking the concept nationwide once the San Diego operation is well under way.
Here's how it works; qualified chefs with either cooking school or three years' professional experience are interviewed, accepted and insured by Big City. They are outfitted with business cards, food containers, labels and access to the Big City Web site which will be interactive so that chefs can manage their clients and accounts online. They are then matched with clients, who also have been prequalified by Big City.
Cooking preferences, location and client load factor into the pairings. Clients can choose from menu selections predesigned by the chef or create their own. The chef will do all the shopping and then use his or her own equipment to cook dishes for anything from an evening dinner party to enough freezable entrées for two weeks.
The best part is that when all the cooking is done, the chef does all the dishes and promises to leave the kitchen spotless. For more information, call (866) 321-CHEF or click on www.bigcitychefs.com.

Brian -
How do you find the owners of a property? I can only find the sales data on the SD recorder's website.
thanks |

Now off the market after a reduction. $1,499,900 to $1,899,900.
When will it come back again?
It looks like this flipper is another case of had-to-buy-to-protect-the-15%-deposit.

Posted By Brian on 06/19/2008 12:51 PM Update on #3703 " Priced to reflect seller's motivation" I guess that 2004 Bosa price for the few and the proud was not so amazing after all. Will this unit become an REO? Time will tell. list: $1,185,000 Minimum Loss: $44,900 + 4 years of opportunity lost on 15% deposit + transaction costs + carrying costs = Pride of ownership + bragging rights to a losing investment..... And you don't even get to live in it.
