I went into escrow on one of the attached townhomes back in July, but canceled in October due to the continued collapse in the housing market. My deposit was onl $2,500, so we figured we’d roll the dice without much to lose. Got our deposit back, thankfully. The salespeople (Melissa) were very friendly through the whole experience.

The main drawback I saw was the unknown things the park across the street will bring. We went to the Sportsplex in Poway to check it out since it’s the same company building the one in Santee. Pretty nice place, but busy until late at night and the light towers made a serious ‘hum’.

Other than the unknown above, I really liked the community’s location and low HOA/tax rate/no mello roos.
