I can’t comment on the short sale aspect but I can tell you this is essentially a condo or PUD with the property line being your neighbor’s house. No yard but you’re close to a nice park at the top of D-street, and brand new public library. You can walk to the coaster station/downtown Encinitas in about 2 minutes. You can’t beat the location. I’m suspicious of the no HOA claim. Overpriced in my opinion, I know big shocker coming from this forum. I bet you could rent this place for 2,500-2,800/month if you’re into comparing rent vs. mortgage.
