Does the water puddle up in the front yard and create a pond, or did they not slope the yard away from the house?PeonInChiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17611581585285022906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622411633995176328.post-51926155795563169552010-02-22T14:39:26.028-08:002010-02-22T14:39:26.028-08:00Thanks for the report on TrendGraphix....I always ...Thanks for the report on TrendGraphix....I always forget to look there. But the inventory numbers are encouraging indeed (in terms of market stabilization).<br /><br />Honestly I am a bit surprised too, I had expected between 8-10% drop this year....and for a while there I was thinking it might even be more. <br /><br />As far as CHP, sometimes they hang out in the parking lot at the firestation and watch for people speeding on Bass Lake road.Buying Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04651516505789196067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622411633995176328.post-49638737821514472802010-02-22T13:33:55.080-08:002010-02-22T13:33:55.080-08:00I was looking at some numbers from TrendGraphix an...I was looking at some numbers from TrendGraphix and looks like the number of homes for sale in EDH is down quite a bit from a year ago, 329 in Jan 2009 and 208 in Jan 2010. The pending sales 42 vs 80 seem to be going up but the number of sold homes 35 in Jan 2009 and 44 in Jan 2010 hasn’t changed much.<br /><br />The average price per sq. ft in EDH was $165 in Jan 2010 and is now $160, which it has been hovering around for a while. <br /><br />The DQ numbers I see for Folsom are a -13.1% change YoY with a median of $325k and a median sq ft in Jan 2010 of $186. <br /><br />EHD has a median of $420k with a -3.4% like you mentioned, and a median price per sq ft of $151.<br /><br />I think I predicted at least a 10% drop, that hasn’t happened in EDH in general, but I have seen many a house drop over 25% in a years time.<br /><br />On a side note, your area is wonderful and we have visited the models when they were open, driven by a few times but just have a very hard time with the Mello-Roos. There is even one of the short-sales on the market now that we were just considering (the one on court with a pool), but couldn’t pull myself to do it. I understand why you love the area, its natural beauty will create wonderful family memories. <br /><br />BTW, are there ever CHP in the ride in or out? That 25 MPH speed limit is very difficult to adhere to : - )husmanenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12133974934289103581noreply@blogger.com
