This property sold on April Fool's day in 2005 ... so go ahead and insert your favorite joke here. This property is now a short sale that originally was listed in August for $1,129,999 - essentially $100k below the sales price.
Then, about two months later, the price fell to the current asking price of $899,999. If we assume the property can and will be sold for the current asking price, it would mean a decline of 27% off the bubble price about five years ago.

This whole neighborhood (The Reserve) is in trouble - built at the peak of the bubble, like Ladera Ranch, and sold for way more than what they're worth today. I think this one will end up REO and sell in the mid-800's. Too bad for these owners, their timing sucked.
Maybe not a factor factor in such an expensive place, but look at the monthly association dues!
I often wonder if values would go up in neighborhoods like this if they bulldozed the "community ammenities" and substantially cut the HOA dues.
