We live in the neighborhood and are wondering if the new purchaser is a flipper/realtor.  There were several people fixing up the house after it sold.  Then, no one moved in.  There has been a car there that we suspect to be a realtor (because of the license plate).  And today there appears to be showings.  Maybe you’ll have to keep a continued eye on this one.

PS—The house next door (29 Maywood) has been for sale just as long.  We suspect the owners are also realtors because it was empty for a long time before someone with a “consult a realtor” license plate moved in.  It is now under contract as well.  They had more room to negotiate because according to zillow it was purchased for $900K, but it will be interesting to see what it sells for. 

Thanks for all your great work!

“Are we still cool OC Fliptrack?”

Are you kidding?  The more exposure the Orange County Real Estate moron-a-thon gets, the happier I am.  I don’t need no stinkin’ credit.

Someone on the forums wanted to see a sale 10% below asking. This very nearly qualifies.

$360/sq ft is a lot better than the $660/sq ft for the Watermarke 1 br/1b residence. I’m just wondering if the flipper will make this loss up with volume?

WTF is this nonsense!

No one in their right mind is going to pay this price for this house ... when are the mother#ucking sellers going to realize IT’S OVER!  OVER, OVER OVER ... DONE WITH!

It looks like a specuvestor bought it.  It just showed up as a rental.

Specuvestor?  Or cash-back at closing rent-skimmer?  I would have to think that even the dimmest of specuvestors wouldn’t chance it in this market.

I’d watch this one very closely for first-payment default.  When will the buyer’s financing details become available?
