The bigger concern I would have is low pressure due to blocked pipes, especially to the bathrooms.

Many of these are low income, government subsidized housing units.

I would tell people today that if you buy a primary residence expect to stay in that home for atleast five years, especially with a FHA loan which has lower down payment as the current forecasts for home appreciation or very low which with closing costs on the buy and sell, it will take several years to have equity in the property and enough to be able to sell, so that is something also to consider.

Those holiday numbers are a bit low, those daily numbers are a bit high. 

The price is about as low as you can go in Southern California.

My trust threshold is very, very low.

This is primarily due to two key factors: low inventory (leading to tight margins) and high interest rates.

I’m not sure where to go from here or what, if any recourse can be made to recoup my money.My take is you get what you pay for & low interest is not worth the crap we had to ho thru and in the end, they didn’t come thru but will brag how they close hundreds of deals a month.well, they didn’t close this one!

When revenue is low in the first couple of year, so is the interest payment.  

My father is a contractor so we will be able to complete most of the work ourselves while keeping costs low and add equity.
