This looks like North Korea or the IHB forums with a high HOA.

This might be at rental parity for a hermit.

Rental Parity?

Not even close.  You must be new around here.

Your writing is already good - yes, there is always room for improvement - writing well can be a never ending and insanity inducing quest! Just be sure to take time every few months to read some undergraduate essays or some newspaper articles to remind yourself how well you write already!

Might the days of rent free living for loanowners finally be coming to an end:

Better writing comes down to liberal usage of onomatopoeia.  Focus on phony realtor “buzz” as prices “thud” and owners “screech” away, and remember that the most intriguing part of any bubble is the “pop.”

Thank you. It is a writing device I don’t use often enough.

With an association of ~$1000 and school district of Santa Ana, there is no telling where prices for these condos are headed.  2010 will be the judgment year!!!

Reading aloud what you just wrote or talking aloud while you are writing is a “bad habit” that I have, *until* I read in book that: when you do that, you are actually “forcing” your brain to use more neurons synapses or neurons links, giving you more “brain power” to solve the task at hand.

By “brain power” I mean all the knowledge that you have accumulated (trough direct experience or learning a new skill) becomes available more quickly to be consumed by the other part of the brain that’s solving the current task, whatever it is.

For a moment I thought the “abandoned property” being donated were the empty units abandoned by the owners. LOL

I thought so, too, Sue.  But to make that happen, maybe Goodwill could set up an RE office at the concierge’s desk.

And just when I thought the Schadenfreude had left me forever, and I’d never experience that sweet, sweet feeling again.

::sighs in bliss::

I wonder if those who liked their choice of ‘investment’ back in 2007 are still just as blissful and chillin’?

Poor Roya, I had forgotten about her… (giggle, giggle).

I hadn’t.  Roya is like a lot of people I encountered when I lived in Brea—cheerleaders for the NAR who were too happy to inform those of us priced out of the insane market that we were losers, fools, or cowards for not digging our graves in a landfill of debt.

I think I’ve begun to pity others, even a few speculators.  But people like Roya will always make me snicker and point.

IrvineRenter,

Thanks for the link to one of our articles. We really appreciate it.

I couldn’t find an easy way to email you directly to thank you so I’m doing it here.

We really appreciate your support.

Thanks,
