[quote=bearishgurl]$300 to $700 in the 70’s was PITI.[/quote]$300-$700 are for people who bought in the 80s to mid 90s. Those who bought in the 70s should have PITI <$300. I've seen houses in MM with tax of $800/year, so, assuming it's paid for, since they bought it in the 70s, their PITI is <$150/month.
[quote=bearishgurl]In short, yes. It was commonplace at that time to get married, buy a house and start a family all before the age of 22-23. The models on the Mt Streets of Clairemont cost approx $11K to $18K new in 1961-ish, depending on lot size, location and square footage and most originally sold VA/FHA.[/quote]That's interesting to know. Didn't know people can save up that quick back then.
[quote=bearishgurl]AN, even the "best of MM" doesn't compare with the "best of Clairemont" (92111) due to lot size, topography, setback, very mature landscaping, proximity to ocean/bay, weather ... many factors.[/quote]I agree, best of CM (92117 not 92111) is better than MM. They have some great bay views there. Although, this is the best of MM: http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-120017711-5938_Shaw_Lopez_Row_San_Diego_CA_92121. Way over priced IMHO.
BTW, if lot size, topography and setback are high on your importance list, MM have some lots that are superior than any CM have to offer (except for those with bay views). How does .4+ flat usable acre with 90-330 degrees canyon view sound?
