   What? WaMu isn’t going to give it away!

   I see lots of naked people.

   What, no ice cream trucks in these up-scale neighborhoods? What are he kiddies to do?

   Downturn, their nannies go to the “poor” parts of town and get the ice cream there! 🙂

   Jim, any chance you’ll be able to record the inside of one of these houses? If so, don’t worry too much about the running time. if the video goes over ten minutes, simply split it in two and upload it in two parts.

   I really want to see more of these monstrosities from the inside. I believe you’ve only managed to show us two of them in all of your videos. Must be pretty hard to get your foot in the door.

   By the time the kiddies ran down that long driveway onto the street, he’d be gone already. Those rich kids are probably eating Hagen Daaz anyway. :o)

   Proof JtR has the power to end our drought. Perhaps next the waterfall will be flowing wine! Please Jim!

   How many lenders are left who are willing to underwrite a million dollar+ note? Homes priced over a million and a half are going to be really slow to sell. A buyer is either going to need to be able to plop down nearly half a million or have access to a private banking line.

   You don’t need to be willing to underwrite a million dollar note. You just need to be able to sell it.

   *Chuckle* Hey, I got four (4) Haagen-Dazs ice cream bars for free at CVS last week. Who knew their sales and extra bucks program could be so fun?

   Me too, Jim, me too! You could always offer the owners some Haagen-Dazs for a quick peek…

    Geez, a Y2K house is “dated”?

    Jim,

    You missed the REO on 6560 Poco Lago. Also, there is an NOD in Roxbury Estates. That makes four impaired homes on a very small street…

    I thought the same thing TJ.

    Jim, in your opinion what would be the typical updates needed from 2000 ? I’m assuming you haven’t been inside, but maybe you had some common items in mind? You mentioned 6 figures to get it done.

    Only think I can think of is electronics, maybe like a home theater room that needs some new equipment.
