I ran into a couple looking for a rental yesterday, as they drove through my neighborhodd, and picked up the flyer of the House for Sale on my street. They told me that the rental market is so scarce, they can’t find anything at all, except houses which are very overpriced or very run-down or odd in some other way. Now their strategy is to call sellers, and approach them with the idea of renting their homes that are not selling.
hs told me she has been checking the rentals since last winter, and the # of rentals has falled by 2/3 in Poway and Scripps Ranch. hs, please correct my version of this if it’s not quite accurate.
