This price was just lowered to $255,000. This is becoming a deep 2004 rollback. Ouch.
Well, me and my friends-we all love to see
Comedy classics on late night TV
Those knuckleheads always get in a scuffle
A push and a shove doin’ the Curly Shuffle
The Curly Shuffle – Jump In The Saddle

Do you remember the Curly Shuffle, the sliding back-step predating the moonwalk? Isn’t that how our housing market works: Two steps forward and one step back?
We had our big rally, our two steps forward. Now it is time for the one step back (or two or three…)

The Irvine Spectrum is just minutes away with close access to freeway, hospital and college!Don’t miss out on this investment opportunity!!”
Notice this is being touted as an “investment opportunity.” I guess if flippers are the only ones buying, you need to appeal to them, right?
At over $100 a round, I doubt the resident here will be playing Oak Creek Golf Course very much.

If this seller gets their asking price, they stand to lose $23,900 on a mid 2004 purchase.
The bottom of the market is being destroyed. What more is there to say? Well, wait until you see tomorrows post…
When me and my friends go out on the town
We can’t sit still. We can’t sit down
We don’t like to fight and we don’t like to scuffle
Dancin’ all night doin’ the Curly Shuffle
Hey, Moe. Hey, Moe.
Well, a nyuk-nyuk-nyuk-nyuk.
La-le-li-li
woo-woo-woo-woo
Well, we never miss a chance
We get up and dance and do the Curly Shuffle
