I found this forum a few months ago, when looking for information to pass along to friends who were planning to move to San Diego. This thread is particularly interesting. I honestly can’t believe what people are willing to pay for tract homes!!
Everyone in both my family and my wife’s family are from San Diego–most of us–now in our 40’s–live in Sunset Cliffs, La Jolla, Del Mar and Carlsbad–and we all paid in the very low six figures for our homes. Some family members are long-time San Diego builders, and even they can’t believe the run-up in pricing for what you get. Guess everyone discovered our little paradise.
