It’s a little smaller then what we are looking for and we don’t like the ranch style, we like the Spanish. There are more pictures on zillow from a prior listing. The original sale price for this home was in the high 900k (I think 984K) and I believe that’s before they did all the hardscape and pool. We are very picky buyers and are looking for the right home with the right lot. I know at this point in the market we will see some more downward pressure on prices and I’m willing to lose some equity since we are planing on staying for a long time. It’s also expensive to renovate larger homes if you don’t like the existing options. You could spend 200K easy in renovations including hardscape. So I don’t mind losing 100k or so in equity if we find the right house with the right options. Also this view is one of the best in Chula Vista (Chula Juana as some of you call it). For those of you that don’t know, this area of Chula Visa is called Rolling Hills. Rolling Hills if one of the only areas in Chula Vista that doesn’t have Mello Roos, so there is a premium for this area.
