I still think it's a bit high for this market. But they may accept $550k. Personally, I wouldn't pay that much for this house but it never ceases to surprise me that somebody else will.

$319,000 sounds about right for Southern California but it won't surprise me at all to see a later sales price around $275,000 for the same or comparable house within a couple of years. $550,000? Pthbbbt.
But then, I think prices are still way too high in relation to income.
One of those buy and then refi until the banks stop letting you refi.
They claim that a full price offer won't be a short pay. So basically, this is a short pay.
Kate,
Let me ask you a question. Do you wake up smiling every day because you didn't buy a house at the peak of the market?
I almost purchased this house at 4224 Benedict Cyn, SO, but backed out of the deal when I hired an independant inspector to check out the house. I wa shocked to see that the house had a leaked sewer pipe , leaking under the foundation and probably moles all over as many bathroom had leaks all over. I will post the inspection report if I am able to. Estimate repairs to be approx. $75,000 or more. The floors were uneven as it is probably sinking. Too many problems and to much work needed.
