Supagyrl88, I think the time for deals like yours is done for now! I’d love to pick up a home for sub $400k, but anything going that low in the last 6 months seems to have needed massive work and been picked up by a flipper.
SD Realtor, I think once we get there, I will make a bunch of lowball offers and see what sticks. Sellers might balk, though. But maybe I’ll get lucky! I think I would be happy enough in a number of the homes currently on the market. But, I suppose maybe if I wait until the spring, rates will have gone up by then and maybe prices will come down a little. Hard to say whether rates going up will have enough of an effect to counteract higher seasonal buying activity.
bewildering, it’s helpful to hear your perspective on the types of renters in the different neighborhoods and the recent rents. We are definitely warming to the idea of living in Clairemont.
