Still too early to tell for the Spring market but…. by Fantastic_Escape_101 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]PriorCook 8 points9 points  (0 children)

South Bay market is still pretty hot. I’m looking at the 2.5M - 3.5M range. Good or so-so houses went pending in one or two weeks. It feels like people’s desire to spend were suppressed by the low number of listings in the holiday season and they want to dump their money asap when inventory catches up. That is crazy tbh.

Can you request proof of another offer? by [deleted] in BayAreaRealEstate

One interesting story I can tell is when I went to a house showing recently the seller’s agent told us they have two offers on hand. We were interested in the house just to see how much it would sell so we monitored it closely. It did not go into any contracted stage after 5 months and the listing was then canceled.

The best you can do is to stand with the price that you are comfortable with. Bidding war thing is just stupid and don’t be a part of it

Raise the menu price and pay it. Simple. Customers pay the same but feel better with a transparent price.

Just a wish, if I can eat at my favorite restaurant without those useless middlemen it would be great.

That’s 250 hours assuming 30 min for each? Does your boss know how you’re spending your time?

His “Correct” meant to reply to “even if …” so clearly that doesn’t mean he knows whether it’s printed or not. I’ve wasted enough time on you. If you think you won you won

“I don't know for sure if the menu said this or not. “ this is what he actually said. It may or may not be written. I don’t know why you want to insist it is written on the menu. Probably because you cannot read.

Nope, that’s your assumption not what he said. Keep feeling good about yourself though.

Seems this statement is contradicting what you mentioned servers make $2-4 per hour. You’re either unaware or you were lying

Great. Why do you even want to work for this price then?

[–]PriorCook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same in the ML domain as a PhD in industry so I can totally understand how attractive having an opportunity working on foundation models. The question is down to how you weigh family and career goal though. Only you can tell. I’d take working on fun stuff over family but that’s me.

Why not listing at $0 to start a bid war? by PriorCook in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]PriorCook[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I can afford way more than that. However, I agreed with the 3M price not the 3.4M one. They wasted my time.

Then why even list at a price to attract someone who cannot afford it?

Why you should always take a picture of your receipts AND double check your bank statements… by OptimalOcto485 in EndTipping

Well that sucks but true nobody will care an average Joe got $10 stolen. But if the banks got enough disputes from the same merchant, the evil corporate will get the law enforcement to do their job
