[Real Estate Forum]

size wise NO, but we have all heard about the motion of the ocean, right? ;)

[Duncan Pollock]

So that suggests you're going to be "making waves"?

No kidding!! You guys are out of control, creating machines!! Lack of sleep can really get to you though, right? Or so it seems... ;)

Hey donelle8,

Nice to meet you. :)

Good luck with your wedding and all. I've been with the same gal for over 11 years and married to her for jsut over 7 years now.

As far as buying a home goes, just do it. That's my advice, buy before the prices go any higher. There is always a wave to ride, the high and low tides of the real estate market. But in the long run you'll be glad you bought now instead of later.

Was that a pun?? :cool:

Mike: You got it. I'm proud of ya!
Donelle8: Two responses:
One -- on the mushy side -- Don't marry someone you can live with. Marry someone you can't live without.
Two -- on the I-can't-resist-the-temptation side -- Go find yourself a Buyer Agent (and, ahem, preferably an Exclusive one)!

Thanks Phoenix Realtor for the advice! Ya, we are trying to get the job accomplished, it's tough trying to find a house in the range we are trying for. San Diego is freakin expensive!

[donelle8]

Ya, I'm not really sure how to comment to those last couple..I'll just respond saying ... um...thanks for the tips and comments.... :rolleyes:

You can join in :)

OK ... enough about waves :D

[Phoenix Realtor]

Yes, expensive it is. But I learned a long time ago from my dad that you should buy now. He passed on a corner lot, about 10 acres, when he was in his 20's. The guy wanted to give my dad this corner lot instead of paying him for painting the guys office building. My dad said no, give me the $5000, which was a lot of money back then.

Long story short, that corner (40th Street and Greenway) sold for a few million in the late 80's. So, even though it seemed like a lot of money at the time, he should have "bought" the corner lot instead of taking the cash and running.

Homes, lots, real estate in general always seems expensive when you are thinking in terms of the here and now. Think of the future...

Wow! Makes sense, totally, thanks for the story! :)

JUST FOR THE RECORD, I AM A FEMALE! SO THAT'D BE THE HUBBY..AND NO YOUR NOT INVITED! :rolleyes:

[Phoenix Realtor]

L M A O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I apologize.

I am a happily married man, so I'm not looking for an invite. Thanks for thinking of me though. ;)

Glad you got something out of my story. You should hear how many old timers tell me one similar to it. Many tell me, "I wish I would've bought three" when they find out how much I'm going to list their home for that they've lived in since 1960 or 1970... But then they all, always say "$7500 was a lot of money back then. We weren't sure how we were going to be able to make our mortgage payments" and so on.

Take care!

Grats on the site so far SiteTutor. Looking forward to whatever you've got cooking...

Thank you Bazkak!

[Las Vegas Real Estate]

Yes, getting back on topic, I am positively riveted, Mike!

[Phoenix Realtor]

Rivet me too!

I wonder what's next?

[KSA]

As another rivetee, I'm going through withdrawal....

Almost a week and no new clues!

Is it a tool for promoting listings???? :D
