bearishgirl,
Thanks for the advice about Pine Valley and Santa Ysabel. ( never heard of them, but I’ll look ino it ) We have to stay within driving distance to the court houses, OC,SD and Riverside.
Re: asking owners of homes for sale, I thought it was (not cool, rude, against the rules) to contact owners directly. Thats why I tried the listing agents, although most have not returned our calls.
Also, afer some due dilegence, I have found that most were in financial difficulty. “Most” being, only 2, one of which as it turns out did not “belong” to the person holding title.
