AN, Mira Mesa is not a good choice for a teardown/custom rebuild because the fundamentals are not in place there to make it worth your while. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe MM to be entirely on tract.[/quote]
How much of a house have to be replaced before a house is no longer a tract home? I.E. If one increase the foot print of the house, or add a second story, or move around walls to a point where the layout is nothing like any other house on the tract. Would these be considered custom in your eyes?
MM might not be a good teardown custom rebuild candidate for people who are looking to buy and teardown right now. However, I see quite a few major remodel (increase foot print or 2nd story addition) done by people who bought 30-35 years ago. Those people have it paid off. It’s much cheaper to remodel the house to the way they like it vs trying to find another place that fit 100% of what they need/want.
Yes, MM is 99.9% tract. There are a few complete rebuilt due to fire or what not. There are a few that had major remodel. I consider that custom but you might not. There are houses that basically double their original sq-ft by increasing the footprint and 2nd story addition.
