Your definition of "hot" and mine differ.

Same. Not digging her at all. He also looks like a fag and always has. RHCP has also been massively overrated and I grew up in that era. Never bought an album. Most their stuff sounds overly produced and not original, as in not written by the band.

Bay Area RE still having lots of vacancy. Heard, some are sold out for 1/4th of purchase price around in MV area! Never thought about these numbers before!
Seller has cut price $472k on this listing. 40% reduction from original list.
Down to a price below what they bought it for in 2020, before the pandemic spike in prices.
Worst of all: check out the HOA fee.
$2,300/month. Ouch.
a lot of families are skipping the 1 week vacation at Disney World and embracing the beach ecotourism experience
Commercial vacancy, you mean?

Reading this about net immigration of rich people into the USA for 2024, is this going to benefit California and Miami Beach real estate ?

What most don't know is price cuts are a marketing tactic. Even if they're small. Price cuts show up in the buyer's MLS feed that the brokers set up. So even small price cuts can help a buyer see the property again or drop into a new buyers price point. It also gets listings bumped in the IDX feeds to sites like realtor.com, zillow, redfin, etc.
As ridiculous as this sounds, we'd have sellers sign a form with the listing agreement that we were allowed to do $1 price cuts up to $100. It worked. Buyers would tell us at showings unprompted. Reason is that most buyers may not be all that serious at first and just scan through what the broker sent them.
80/20 rule. 80% of buyers are morons when it comes to real estate. 19% have a solid idea of the market. 1% knows their shit. That's why the $1 price cut worked on most buyers. 15 years of anecdotal evidence on 1k+ deals.
Car dealers are doing this too. I've once subscribed to price alerts on one car I was interested in on Autotrader and discovered the seller kept changing the price from about $1K above KBB down in $100 increments until it hits KBB and then he bumps it back up and repeats the game. The car has eventually disappered from the site, meaning they did find a sucker to buy it above KBB.

Happening in Central Florida too. They're cutting a few thousand off every 3-4 weeks.
They got a LONG way to go.
Even if the Fed started dropping rates in September, buyers aren't going to bite .
Well, I guess that I - at least - am not one of those morons. Or I am because I eventually lose out to the buying moron who does purchase it why I act what is otherwise rationally.
Every property bought and NOT refinanced WILL be worth more when you sell it in 10 years. Show me a scenario not in a ghetto and you got me. You can't.

60-90 day closing timeline

60-90 day closing timeline
60 to 90 days? I sold a house in Newport News VA in 2017 and my BIL sold a house in Papillion NE in June 2024. In both cases, the time from signed contract to closing with check in hand was less than a month. Not cash buys either, both houses had buyers with mortgages. I remember decades ago it took 60 to 90 days to close, but the process has been seriously streamlined since then.

It did not even hit 60 days during the plandemic.

Bond manager Mark Kiesel sold his California home in 2006, when he presciently predicted the housing bubble would pop. He bought again in 2012, after U.S. prices fell more than 30% and found a floor.
Now, after a record surge in prices, Kiesel says the time to sell is once again at hand.
