[quote=sdrealtor]The minute anyone compares SD to Florida they lose me everytime. The only they share is latitude. Anyone who has spent considerable time both places would know that.[/quote]

You should have said “anytime someone compares SD to FL while acknowledging SD is preferable and deserves a premium.”

“I know San Diego is preferable to Florida in many ways, yet for me that is one of the most comparable markets (weather, recreation, beaches, life style) the devastation in the RE market there is my precurser to SD prices (with a SD premium)

Do you have a better comparable? I did quantify that “SD was preferable in many ways”. I also said SD deserves a premium. But how much????

I like SD and FL for the weather. SD wins.

I like SD for the beaches. FL wins.

I like SD for the Ocean. FL wins.

I like SD for the sport fishing/seafood. FL wins.

Just a taste. When comparing nice cities on the ocean that are semi-tropical what else do we have? Brownsville?
