[quote=92126_guy]Hello,
So my wife are keeping our options open for when/if/where we want to buy next. We checked out the new construction for Pardee in Carmel Valley but of course it is way out of our price range of 350 – 450, so I noticed the also have a community down in San Ysidro. The places are nice and in our range, but I’m curious as to any background info. The sales rep said only 3 of the actual model homes are not in escrow, but I saw a short sale on Red Fin for I believe plan 3 for 390k (FTA: “bank wants this sold”) which wasn’t a ringing endorsement for future prices. I realize it’s FAR away (traffic) and very close to the boarder (security), but like I said we’re keeping our options open. Beyond the obvious gut reactions to living so far south any thoughts? It appeared a school was built next to the community but I don’t need to worry about that beyond taxes/fees as we aren’t having children.
We would rent there first before we bought as this time around I’m not jumping in with both feet.
