Rustico,
I post regular commentary on the NCC every Monday in The Short Sale Monitor. The fours day I posted on are pretty much the story I’ve seen all Spring. CV is probably the strongest market in all of SD right now followed closely by Encinitas and South Carlsbad. Again, I did not say prices are rising but rather they are holding their own this Spring. Last Spring, inventory was climbing rapidly by this time and prices were falling hard through Spring. This year inventory is modeartate and prices are relatively firm.
BTW, a ratio of 149/63 is very very strong. It’s just over 2 to 1. last year it was closer to 4 to 1.
Lastly, these are very key days we are going through right now. If you are of the mind to move when school ends you put your house on the market in Mid May to early June so you wont have to move b4 school gets out even if it sells quickly. Right or wrong, Alot of people think this way.
