I think Skyranch is trying to make the point about the amenities and upgrades and the night view. For old timers in San Diego County, Santee will always have an image problem. For those still in the market, it may be worth a second look. The schools are not bad and it is freeway close to most places. Like flu, the sticker shock for that area is a hard pill to swallow. Another issue is the size of the houses. I am not sure the builder did their homework when they put them there at those prices. However, if the builders are selling the models, they might be willing to make some close out deals for those who do not worry about a Santee address.
