BR Contest Wrap-Up

Written by Jim the Realtor

We’ve been watching a couple of REOs on Huntington, and had a set of Padres tickets riding on the outcome – what would be the combined total of the two sales prices?

Here is a link to the original post:

6344 Huntington, Carlsbad

4 br/4.5 ba, 3,815sf  YB: 2005

HOA/MR fees = $401/month

SP:  $1,300,000 6/07

Local Boy is the winner of four Padres tickets, guessing within $900 of the total!

    Can’t believe the 6344 sold for less and it has more upgrades with complete landscape. What the heck the buyer(s) was thinking paying more for the other house. Knife catcher!

  3. greenlander

    I was was too pessimistic. I’m before my time, an enigma in my own life. 🙂

  4. Rob Dawg

    Man, I suck. At least it looks like we are running out of knife catchers.

  5. Susan

    6344 eventhough has more upgrades, the backyard is smaller and no privacy at all (there’s a walking trail behind it).
    Whereas the 6363 has huge backyard with view.

  6. Local Boy

    Wow–I guess my dartboard is more accurate that I had thought! Ironically enough, I have on my list of things to do today: “Buy Padres Tix”- I’ll go ahead and cross that one off! By the way Jim–Thanks for organizing these little contests and for putting out such a fantastic Website/Blog–It is not only fun, but very informational! Congrats on the recent publicity as well!

  7. JAP

    Nice call LB!

  8. tj and the bear

    Congrats, LB.

    Luckily you consider Padres tix a prize and not a penalty like I would. 🙂

  9. CA renter

    Congratulations, Local Boy! 🙂

  10. UCGal

    Oooh… I was so close! Drat!

    Congrats Local Boy.

  11. Local Boy

    TJ-After tonite’s loss you might be right–Luckily baseball is a LONG season!!!

  12. Genius

    Go Dodgers

  13. ocrenter

    yes, 21 years after the last “good season” this season does look promising for the boys in blue.
