I do believe Scripps Ranch is still priced pretty high. I have watched the area for 2-3 years. That being said, we did just purchase a brand new home in Stonebridge for under $200.00 a sq. ft. The value for an existing Scripps Ranch home compared to the new Stonebridge home was a factor in our decision. Buy a home to live in, enjoy, raise a family, etc. “but in the long run it may be okay given the lot size, home layout, etc.”
