I would also encourage potential Bressi buyers to consider the quality of homes, architecture, and general community aesthetics. Homes are jammed together with many garages opening up to alleys behing the home, streets are narrow, the architecture of neighboring homes often does not seem to flow IMO. From Palomar Airport Road you can see Spanish, colonial, ranch, and other style homes side by side in a manner that you will only see in SoCal. Also consider the high mello roos and HOA, the number of homeowners who paid high $$ and are teetering on financial ruin, the high number of resales and new homes for sale and the airport noise.
Compare all of this with nearby areas and you will never look back. Rancho Carillo next door is much nicer, and Rancho Dorado, a San Marcos community next door, is just as nice as Rancho Carillo with better prices. In Aviara in South Carlsbad you can get a 2800 sqft. home for 850-950, with no mello roos and HOA. A little higher than Bressi, but if you plan to stay for the long haul your mello roos and HOA savings will make this a cheaper purchase!
