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.

Just start a thread on the CA housing bust

Ahem, that's what ad did when he started this thread:


Wookie, read the Yahoo article as Kiesel was commenting about the housing market in the USA, not just Mexifornia.

The Yahoo article links to the below website, and Kiesel comments on the USA housing market.

Seller Entitlement Syndrome



It usually goes like this:

Seller hires agent

Seller doesn't list at suggested sales price and wants it listed 50k-100k over market and will not negotiate backwards from the crazy high number. Seller cites 1 irrelevant comp as the basis for the high price and ignores all other market data and market factors.

No buyer action on grossly overpriced listing

Seller blames agent for lack of interest

Seller won't lower the price enough to attract a buyer ($1-$1000 price reduction on a 750k house that is actually worth 625k)

Agent does as they're told and just keeps the price where it is

Listing goes stale and showings are nonexistent

Seller cancels the listing and fires agent for not getting the job done

Seller hires new agent and re-lists at an almost identical bad price as before

Cycle starts fresh and seller blames everyone else for why their house won't sell

Around here, an Agent will not take such a listing. They may take a seller who is only a few thousand above market, knowing they can lower the price later.

Yup. That's generally how it works. Only desperate agents take those listing and hold open houses to get buyer leads. The drawback is in a neighborhood with tight community, you'll get a reputation as not being able to sell houses. It's a risky strategy. Opening doors for buyers to show them a house is agony. While the listing agent is sitting at home with a beer. Listing are gold if you can get the seller to price it reasonably.

@WookieMan,

You may sound rough around the edges to some, but you’re speaking facts from your experience. I want to say thanks. We only have one life to live. Enjoy life and live happy. Do what we can control and let what we can’t control go.

We all make bets and live with the consequences. Interestingly, the people, who tend to complain, are the ones who don’t make bets. Have a great weekend.

Yup, rents have peaked….for now. With all the tech layoffs, hopefully rents will cool down in the Bay Area.

Overpaid and having serious regrets, 1 full year in


This thread is comedy gold. People asking her why the hell is she asking reddit for financial device then counter arguments that she can't trust her family because they 'forced' her into bad decision and then her response? "My family directly manages all of my liquid assets so it makes it hard to exclude them from this kind of thing"

Yeah, not feeling sorry for her. Not sure she's lost a penny of her own money.

Just once, I'd like to come into serious money that I never had to work for.

I'm involved in some real estate groups and people tell me about getting 'generational wealth' and it seems like you could end up with kids(losers) in the long run who are entitled.
1873   GNL   2023 Mar 19, 7:06am  

I highly recommend raising your kids without knowledge of how rich you are. Leave it to them when you're dead UNLESS they have shown personal traits you approve of. If I gave money to my kids, it would only be after they have already proven to be self sufficient and have no addictions. At that point, I'd have no problems giving them the money.

I read Meta (or Facebook) is pushing to get workers back into the office. So all those towns like Miami and Boise that have work-from-home tech workers may be impacted.

I don't think housing is going to suffer too badly. "They" just don't want too many people living a full American life. "They" want 2 different economies. I for the few and 1 for the many.

Here in the Florida panhandle the starting working wage is $16 an hour. Some jobs like landscaping offer up to $20 an hour to start.

The average rental is $1.60 per square foot, so a 2 bedroom 2 bath rents for around $1600 which typically will include water, sewer, garbage, internet, basic cable, a gym and a pool. Its about 6 working days to pay for rent.

Earning a combined $32 an hour, would equate to about $65,000 a year which would be able to afford a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage townhome.

A dozen eggs cost $2.60, chicken legs cost $1.15 per pound, a can of cannelli beans cost 75 cents, a box of grapenuts cereal costs $4.50, and bananas cost 60 cents a pound at our local Piggly Wiggly in Panama City, Florida.

Gas is $2.95 a gallon on average.

As of now, it is livable conditions here and I hope it does not get worse like California or New York.

Can you show me a listing where $32hr/$65k can purchase a 3/2 in that area?

$11/hr is the Florida minimum wage.


Come to the Florida panhandle like Panama City, boy

Look at the help wanted, such as landscaping entry level pay is $16 to $20 an hour

They will start at worst at $16 then give a raise to $18 within 6 months

McDonalds is hiring at $15 an hour but is paying more than that for some who have fast food experience, boy

That is how I talk. I use the word boy sometimes and it it just a way of talking, just like some use bro and man.

I am not talking this way to insult you.

Not sure why you reference minimum wage of $11 when it is irrelevant in most if not all of Florida. Starting salaries for fast food and working class jobs like entry level landscaping are a lot higher than the minimum wage here.

So, almost no one is being paid minimum wage where you're located in Florida?
