Next time you are in the area, take a drive by this house:
9719 Deer Trail Dr.
San Diego CA 92127

That is listed at 810K. Yes, it is more expensive than the house in Del Sur but your Mello Roos are MUCH less and the monthly payment is about the same, maybe even less. It is a much larger house (3780 sf) built by Davidson, in a beautiful part of south 4S Ranch, in easy walking distance of Stone Ranch Elementary. Like Del Sur, it goes to Oak Valley Middle School and Del Norte HS. Also, your front and back landscaping are already done. You owe it to yourself to at least check it out. You may find that you never go back to Del Sur again![/quote]

Just thought I would update. That property apparently sold for $787K (per Zillow). So, did you end up buying it?? 🙂
