The same things are happening here in our little market. Builders are throwing them up as fast as they can, and at the same time the existing stock of unsold new homes and resales continues to grow. Many builders have resorted to filling the empty houses with relatives and workers to avoid paying higher insurance premiums for "unoccupied" houses. <BR/><BR/>The realtors keep publishing happy-talk B.S. about the dynamic and vibrant housing market, and how there is no bubble -- LOL!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18675105.post-1141020274577147932006-02-27T06:04:00.000+00:002006-02-27T06:04:00.000+00:00Tucson has great hiking!

The house next door to mine had been on the market since August last year and still not sold yet and it's even in prime Chandler location area. So imagine other lesser prime areas would be like. This home had been sitting empty for over a year now. It was sold to investors couple of time within a few months jsut last year till this current investor who feel like the greatest fool now. He must feel like crap now when throwing money down the drain each month for 7 months now. Just simple $2K per month that would be 14K down drain already. And you know these type of imateur investors refused to lower the price to make sale. It's just unbeleivable stupidity. Music game is over baby and no chair left to sit. The news kept saying the speculators are gone but I would say not all of them yet because the smart one pulled out last summer and stupid ones got stuck behind. Now the small window is closing on them. I felt sorry for those families that bought into last year home market of worrying they would miss the nice boat to riches but little did they know that they jump on the Titanic. Why don't people want to learn history. It's there so you won't make mistake again but unbelievable how many herd mentality people outhere took it with leap of faith. Speculators, LOL accurate words would be we ran out of stupid morons now. More blood shed coming to AZ home market theater soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18675105.post-1141012736249186152006-02-27T03:58:00.000+00:002006-02-27T03:58:00.000+00:00Does anyone know why Tuscon escaped this?What is g...Does anyone know why Tuscon escaped this?<BR/><BR/>What is going on in Tucson?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18675105.post-1141004955766059092006-02-27T01:49:00.000+00:002006-02-27T01:49:00.000+00:00Xicote,FSBO won't show up on MLS.

Right now in Phoenix everybody is an expert or/and doesn't have equity to pay the relator so the number is much higher. When you drive through subdivisions you can see the case. A lot FOSBs. Drove today to store and saw about 6 FOSBs versus about 11 regular listings. It's really nice. Forgot to mention that I work as a mtg brooker whore for almost 8 years now.
