So we're in competition on the property we're after. We were the first with an offer in, which helps, and it was certainly a decent offer, but if the Buddhists come in with a cash offer for the asking price we're toast. Little nervous. Really want this place, but I'm not going to do something stupid to get it.

Buyer accepted my offer of 3200. He's in SD/Calexico so my buddy is going to look at it for me, if it checks out. I will have a new truck tomorrow.

So i'm starting to think I'm not gonna get the truck, the guy barely speaks english so I had to speak to his wife. He's been difficult to set up a time and a place to have the truck looked at and she said she'd call back 3 hours ago with the VIN. I R sad, really liked that truck.

Could just be flaky and the truck still a good find. Who knows. But understand getting frustrated and hitting eject when other parties drag their feet much.

In other news, the owners of that property came back with a counter offer. We are in the front running.

I finally got a hold of him, a buddy is going to look at it for me tomorrow. I think he was using a translator program and thats why his emails were all exactly 16min apart.

Nice job on the property, i'm liquidating whatever payments I have in the hopes of a home soon.

As far as I can tell, this market is a combination of cheapest houses/property and cheapest money we're likely to see. I can also say the market seems to be moving, houses are starting to sell (banks are constraining supply heavily). I don't know how long the window will be open and I don't have a crystal ball, but I do think that if anyone has a hankering to get a place, and they even sort of have the means, I don't think it's going to get much better. JMO.

I agree, I did the math and I likely can afford an 80-100k house. Not a large window, but there are a few places out by Ron that fit the bill. Nothing near Covina unfortunately
