A video tour of affluence – three shopping centers in full-upgrade mode, plus more on the new homes around Carmel Valley this year. With this much action, it is hard to believe we’ll have any trouble selling the limited amount of homes for sale in 2018 – as long as the kooks don’t nuke!
Here’s the video tour of the model homes from February:

This tour started after Rob Dawg’s comment, “Housing is driving demographics, not the other way round”.
Charging for parking? That’s got to be some kind of signal. Of what I have no idea. You are correct about the increasingly blatant us or them distinction.
You being a realtor and all probably missed the real observation. Even the worker trucks at the constructions were upscale.
Bet the Toll Bros community sells out on the pinks.

There will be a full-blown frenzy over the one-story houses, and the rest will get picked up in the excitement. I wonder if they allow insider buys?
In order to assist subdividers with preliminary marketing efforts, the CalBRE may issue a preliminary public
report at the request of the developer, provided that the CalBRE believes it is reasonable to expect that the
requirements of the final report will be met in due course. A preliminary report may be issued without all of the
requirements of the final report being met, e.g., the tentative map has been approved, but the final map has not
been recorded, unless the prospective purchaser would have an incomplete picture of the subdivision without such
information. The subdivider must print the preliminary public report on pink paper; hence, the report is commonly
referred to as a “pink paper” or the “pink report.”
With a preliminary report, the developer may accept nonbinding reservations, subject to the CalBRE’s
stipulations with regard to handling purchase money deposits, cancellation rights, etc.
Larger subdivisions are often developed and sold in phases over many months, years, or over an indefinite period
of time, yet a final report must be obtained for the sale of every home in every phase. In such cases, a preliminary
public report can be issued for the entire project with final reports being issued for each phase as they are developed.
Once the final report is issued, the developer may convert the reservation to a binding purchase and sale agreement
subject to the provisions of the final report. The preliminary report is valid for one year, but expires sooner if the
final report is issued before that time, except if the report is an overall preliminary report and a final report is issued
on a phase covered by the overall preliminary report.

We should have gone all in on Bitcoin back in 2009! We’d be multi-millionaires by now!
Damn you safe investments based on sound business fundamentals! LOL!
“Damn you safe investments based on sound business fundamentals! LOL!”
“So what’s this Facebook thing?”
“Oh, it’s like MySpace, without the gifs or annoying dumb white trash!”
“But is it based on sound business fundamentals? What’s the forward plan?”
“Oh! The guy who started it said his user base are “a bunch of dumb f***s”
“Huh?”
“Point being, he apologized. After the news found out about that. Plus, you can post all the personal information you want. You can post your kid’s most embarrassing pictures without his legal consent. On Facebook, it’s like he’s your dog! By the time he’s 18, they’ll have a dossier on him to turn the FBI green with envy! His life can be bought and sold to anyone in the world at any time for the rest of his days!”
“Why?”
“Why what?”
“Why did the founder apologize for calling his user base a bunch of dumb f***s? I mean… that’s what they are, right?”
“He thought it made him look too much like Nero. He’s his own man.”
“That’s smart! You’ve said enough! I’m all in!”
I like the one’s with the walled antechambers, closing off the front door area with a gate. If you’re going to plop a large expensive house that close to a public sidewalk, you want to have the feeling as if it’s not plopped a few feet from a public sidewalk. With this, as long as you keep your front gate closed, you can look out the front door of your house, and imagine you have a front yard, boasting a well manicured lawn beyond the gate. A front yard! With grass! Like you’re a Lord, or something! Just like back in the day! Point being, helping homebuyer’s with their imaginations can save them a lot of money, and Toll Bros picked up on that.
Toll Bros – “See? It’s Not So Bad!”
