Not much margin on the house, I just want to sell it. The real estate people gave me the opening price, now its my price and the buyer can pay commission if they want to use an agent.

on 8-21-2007 the price was $410K
on 1-23-2008 the price was $375K
last time I walked by the sign said $299K
what is the price now?
the real estate people gave you the opening price of $410K? wow what would their commission have been if it had sold? this is blatant abuse by the RE agents here (and all over the peninsula) and reason why RE prices had become overinflated here.

There has recently been a lot of interested people. The offer price is at 225 now. It's a great location for a home/business or just a home, or just a business.

Being a California real estate developer (perhaps that is past tense) I know the pain of this steep decline in market.

Good friend of mine built a gorgeous spec house on five acres not far from my home, put about $1.5 m into it, and listed at $2.1m.
This was two years ago.

Bank sold it this week for $750k.

OUCH!!!

Prices have dropped in Loreto. A Canadian couple just paid American owners $150,000 cash for a lovely gringo house, completely furnished, very close to the beach/ Calle Davis with a Fideicomiso already established. (To transfer one is much cheaper than initiating a new one).

Question, what possessed you to invest in the building a house of such magnitude in the worst Loreto real estate market in the last 15 years with one of the most expensive Loreto contractors? Very curious.

mitchman, did you notice the date on the first post?

He probably started the project 3 years ago. Market was good then.
