For the past several years, real estate has been outperforming…by a large margin….anything I could have made in other investments.Cascadia wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 5:15 amDisagree.

I always love when someone says an offer is "insulting". If it was so insulting they wouldn't even respond to it imo.NewtonHawk11 wrote: ↑Tue May 31, 2022 8:25 pm In a span of 3 weeks they dropped the value of their house almost 15%. And we took advantage. Our first offer was “insulting” but yet they kept coming back and back and back. We gave a small amount at the end but still worth it.
Love it.jhawks99 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 01, 2022 6:38 am We sold our large, less than 10 year old house a couple of years ago to move into a smaller house after the kids moved out. The first offer was insulting. Almost 50K under asking. I told them it was insulting and when they came back with something a little more reasonable, I told them to eff off.
I will admit, we did come in quite low because they overpriced it. So it probably was, but after just one week, they approached us with a counter. They had a non-local realtor working on it and they overshot the market.jhawks99 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 01, 2022 6:38 am We sold our large, less than 10 year old house a couple of years ago to move into a smaller house after the kids moved out.

Bat Shit Crazy, folksTDub wrote: ↑Wed Jun 01, 2022 10:57 pm gonna be more housing issues when we can't make concrete. Can't get the cement to make the concrete anymore.
They've shut down all personal, homeowner sales and only approved, licensed contractors can order mud starting next week. They won't guarantee delivery until day of and large projects take priority, meaning small jobs will get bumped indefinitely. Plus batch plant told us to expect another jump in prices next month and expect it'll get close to $200/yd with no admix or nothing. That's fuckin insane. The beginning of the tumble has arrived full force. Hopefully we have an air mattress down below
I don't know how he manages to be an expert on every topic imaginable and still have time to work his day job. It's quite impressive.TDub wrote: ↑Wed Jun 01, 2022 11:56 pm you realize I order a lot of concrete right? I know the batch plant guys pretty well? I'm not basing this off an article I've read?
That's the actual update from today's meeting with the concrete supplier in this county. So, not sure what you're getting at; but you do you, you amazingly brilliant human.
Based on your statement/claim, many people might conclude that it "turns out" you are a dumbass too.Overlander wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 9:54 amFor the past several years, real estate has been outperforming…by a large margin….anything I could have made in other investments.Cascadia wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 5:15 amDisagree.

I mean the economy is clearly starting to bump up against a wall. My statement was about 1 example of it. I put it in this thread because there's still a housing shortage but tough to build anything without concrete (and meet code).BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 5:18 amI don't know how he manages to be an expert on every topic imaginable and still have time to work his day job.

Correct. Because I don't pretend to be an expert on all things. Cascadia does.jhawks99 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 8:53 amSaid with no sense of irony at all.BasketballJayhawk wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 5:18 amI don't know how he manages to be an expert on every topic imaginable and still have time to work his day job.
