DISQUS

I think CA usually updates the next morning between 6 am and 7am

Nope CA scores show at the bottom of the "Status" page

Jeff - do you still expect NASBA states to release REG between 8 and 12 tonight?

Thanks Wave 2 pass CA, good luck!

I'm waiting for Reg in CA. Does anyone know if CA ever releases scores in the evening/night? Thanks

Hey Jeff,

Did you say that the wave 1 Audit scores that have not been posted yet were released by the AICPA to NASBA on Friday?

Thanks.

Actually I agree with you here but for a different reason. Once you buy a house there is nothing you can do about the price. You are stuck with it. The mortgage, at least traditionally, can be refinanced or even paid off. If interest rates stay high then at least you are paying back with cheaper dollars. This is something real estate agents probably won't tell you. An C.T., you know where you can stick your banana.

man, this crazy spike in rates cant be good for the housing market, can it? i was getting pretty interested when confirming was below 5% and jumbos were at 6%. now with conformings marching toward 6% and jumbos going to mars, not so much. looks like another round of price cuts is on its way. green shoots, anyone?

remind you of your life does it dude?

and you. Oh wait, your not even a little name yet.

Is it time yet? No.

then say nothing and maybe be thankfull if you were one of the lucky ones on the gravy train. It's over now.

Regarding AIG's sponsorhip of Man. United. The deal with Aon doesn't start until the 2010-2011 season. AIG's existing sponsorship deal will continue next season, to the tune of approximately $23 million US taxpayer dollars. I have been wondering where the outrage is over this. Do americans just not know about it? We could at least make the jerseys say "USA."

Every day is a new day in the world of high finance. Unwinding unsustainable levels of leverage, risk and investment returns is going to take a very long time. So far the US Gov has thrown over $8,000,000,000 at the problem. Yes that's Eight Trillion! As in Eight Thousand Billion! Not to mention, all this money has to be EARNED before it can be paid back and earned at sustainable levels of risk, leverage and return.

"All I can say is let's hope the Feds and the Attorney Generals everywhere are working overtime--there's lots of bad guys & gals to chase out there. Thank goodness they've at least started the job." Well they don't need to look to hard, maybe they should walk down the hall to Chris Fraud and Barfey Frank's office

speaking of comp busters, any news on 629 36th ?

MB Watcher, will there be an Open Forum or is that gone for good? Thank you.

You can't come here unless you promise to bring your banjo and moonshine.

Anyone see 620 30th street? early 90s build at 1.5 million. Its a race to the bottom, and this one is the lowest priced in that area by about 100k. what a comp-buster.

sounds like they are both overpriced, but the one in the valley is more overpriced. here is where pricing will be before we see meaningful gains - competitive with similar rents...maybe even less. at 20% down, people will start to bite the bullet and buy. their downside will be limited due to the fact that they could rent and break even after depreciation. we are getting close, but not quite there yet.

I love how people keep saying things like "if the economy continues to sink, all bets are off". Guess what, all bets are off. It's coming Tree Section Dude. Just sit tight, cause it is coming.

I love how Huggy intentionally misspells words to perpetuate this myth that he's not C.T.

Here's the thing: one only knows if you have a good location or priced right if it sells right away. It it doesn't sell then it's got to be the location or it's not priced right. Not to say that these things don't matter but.given that 90% of agents and 90% of owners seem to get this wrong makes one wonder about this real estate truism. To say tree section lots will settle around $900K is a sticking your neck out a bit, don't you think? We'll be calling you Agent 3/4 next year this time, I think. $600K for an average tree section lot is probably not in the cards but we now have $800K and I don't think $700K is too far behind.

Wrong & Wrong: I think your math is wrong. I would like to see your calculations on that payment. If the guy who details your car makes enough to afford a 480k loan then you are overpaying for his services.

I went through that house. Less than $100K and you have a decent tree section bungalow. Total price: $900K. Not too bad if you ask me. Not sure about financing but some deal could probably have been made given the capital requirements.
