The bluff is tricky. That first one is dreaming. Notice what they paid for it last year. Travertine floors just aren’t going to get people worked up anymore.
The second one is big and – who knows – the price might keep dropping.
These complexes are circa early 70s and unevenly maintained. They don’t have A/C and the bluff assessments are enough to keep you up at night.
Then you have to add in the permenanent residents (sometimes older and rather cranky about their territory) with the endless parade of renters.
And South Sierra is such a dump! The abandoned trailer park is still there and the area just never reall got fixed up like it should have, considering the prices.
My parents bought in Del Mar Beach Club from a plan before it was completed, back in the day when you couldn’t find Solana Beach even if you were looking for it and there was NOTHING there. They sold after many years, many assessments and an engineering report that the complex would be in the ocean soon enough.
Pity. I loved going there and often wish I could buy there, even though I know the downsides!
