Ah ok.I’m glad you checked out Maricel. I was curious about them. I didn’t know it was a gated community.
I’m not sure what your maximum budget is but did you check out any homes in Santaluz? I’m not sure what is/isn’t on the market but I noticed this one just got an offer but it was on the market for a few months. It will be interesting to see what it sold for.
The guy bought it near the top of the bubble back in October 2007 so I’m curious to see what it sells for.
Santaluz is great if you have kids. And some of the houses we looked at were highly upgraded. I’m not sure what is on the market there but it would be worth checking out. The community is AWESOME to live in if you have kids. We absolutely love it here. (I’ll send you a PM).
Also, there are some nice houses in Verrazzano as well. It’s not gated there but it’s really nice and great parks there if you have kids. HOA fees I believe are lower there since it’s not gated.
The prices going up I think is just from lack of inventory. There isn’t anything too special on the market now. It was kind of tight back in 2011 but NOTHING like now. We are so glad we bought when we did.
