nesting, when did you get these prices?
I got these from 3/29/07:
Lot 797 (plan 2901) $742,990
Lot 798 (plan 3365) $779,990
Lot 825 (plan 2901) $724,990–>$721,890
Lot 829 (plan 2901) $713,900–>$707,890
Lot 830 (plan 3212) $741,990–>$731,490looks like between 3/29 to now, lot 828 fell out. so does this mean lot 797 and lot 798 both sold? so looks like its sell 2 homes and get one back for Pienza.
check out this loser that bought plan 3365 when it was SilverCrest 10 months ago.
April 16, 2007 at 10:04 PM #50308nestingcoupleParticipantHi ocrenter. Thanks a lot for the pricing information. I got the pricelist yesterday but it was dated 4/4. It’s going to release 4 new houses this sat and will only give price infor on this Sat.
April 16, 2007 at 10:20 PM #50315nestingcoupleParticipant797 was marked as sold, the price listed was $737,890. 798 was sold, the price was not listed in the latest pricelist.
April 16, 2007 at 11:23 PM #50323ocrenterParticipantbut as soon as 797 is sold for $737,890, they drop the prices on the other two 2901 models?
Lot 825 (plan 2901) $724,990–>$721,890
Lot 829 (plan 2901) $713,900–>$707,890so 797 just lost up to $30,000 in 1-2 weeks?
April 16, 2007 at 11:34 PM #50325nestingcoupleParticipantThat’s a sharp observation. 829 is cheaper because it’s a corner house, facing two streets. But 825 and 797 are just across the street, looks exaclty the same lot size from the lot map, and yeah, it seems 797 lost about $16000 in a couple of weeks. I’m curious could the buyer negotiate with the builder to get some price deduction or ask the builder to throw in som upgrade/landscaping to make up the lose?
April 16, 2007 at 11:54 PM #50327SD RealtorParticipantGuys don’t forget also that in each of these cases the good faith deposit was most likely kept. The builders have a VERY quick contingency removal.

April 17, 2007 at 7:37 PM #504284Sbuyer2002ParticipantHistorical 4S pricing for Fieldstone
FYI for those that want a more distant historical perspective,
Prior to Silver Crest and Pienza, Fieldstone built Cambridge in 4S Ranch. Cambridge has very similar plans by same builder except the lots are quit a bit bigger. I thought I would never say such a thing because the lots in Cambridge seem very small. However, compared to what they are squeezing Silver Crest and Pienza homes into the lots at Cambridge seem spacious.
Here are the Fieldstone 4S prices for Phase 4 and 5 of Cambridge.
Phase 4 release on June 28, 2003
Plan 2814 – $559,990
Plan 3157 – $592,990
Plan 3392 – $615,990Phase 5 release on August 9, 2003
Plan 2814 – $594,990
Plan 3157 – $616,990
Plan 3392 – $634,990grateful owner . . . .
April 17, 2007 at 8:14 PM #50431ocrenterParticipant2900-3300 sqft for $707,000 to $737,000. April 2007
vs.
2800-3400 sqft for $595,000 to $635,000. August 2003
So we are $100,000 away from August 2003 pricing, considering these were actually up to $900,000 in late 2005 – early 2006… perhaps by the end of the year we would hit August 2003 pricing?
April 17, 2007 at 8:22 PM #50432mixxalotParticipantPrices need to drop another 200k for anyone with half a brain to buy one of these dumps.
April 18, 2007 at 6:07 PM #505244Sbuyer2002Participant$200k drop from $707K??? If a 3000 sq/ft SFH in 4S Ranch can ever again be bought for 500K I will be the first in line to buy another. Barring a nuclear strike on San Diego, a massive earthquake, a melt down at San Onofre, or a meteor strike on Del Mar it won’t happen.

April 18, 2007 at 8:05 PM #50531nestingcoupleParticipantHi macabre, I do not think a $20K drop is realistic either. If we use the 2000 price, factoring 3% inflation which is about 23% appreciation, a housing selling at $520K for a 3277 sqrt (which one of my friend bought new) can be priced at $640K. If we think 2000 price is reasonable, I would be happy to buy using this pricing formula.
Hi macabre, how is your house quality? Is fieldstone is reputable one? One of my friend’s house was built in 2004, and their wall (other neighbors as well) had a big long crack, finally the builder fixed it.
April 18, 2007 at 8:40 PM #50534nlaParticipantMaybe it’s just me, but compared to Davidson or even Cornerstone, I find Fieldstone homes as inferior and poorly built. But what do I know. Plus it seems that most of Fieldstone floorplans are “boring”. That’s just me though.
April 18, 2007 at 8:48 PM #50535nestingcoupleParticipantHi nla,
which communities have the two builders built in SD? Neither of the two has built or is building houses in 4S. -
