– Temecula isn’t a viable option for us (although I do think it is lovely.) My husband works in Sorrento Valley and I work downtown. Poway is about as far north as we are willing to go, plus we have family there.
– I agree that the buy instead of rent equation is an interesting one and definitely worth considering. We have run a bunch of different financial senerios and will re-access when our condo sells (it is listed and we are reviewing offers in a matter of days.)
– We aren’t new to the area. My husband is from SD and I’ve been here over 15 years.
