[quote=kcal09][quote=ocrenter]We dropped by Marston and found the homes essentially squeezed into tiny lots on the non-powerline side, and the side with decent lot size had the powerlines. Making the whole development highly undesirable.
MR and HOA are probably about the same, but you’ll have a gated community with the Lakes. So resale wise the Lakes will likely hold up better.[/quote]
I agree with ocrenter as well. I feel that Marston is way overpriced for the location and lot size. I’m not sure if Scripps Ranch or Poway would work for you locationwise. But there are nice homes there without the Mello Roos.[/quote]
I don’t know if OP has ever been to Standard Pacific’s Ballasario development in Stonebridge. It may not be right for OP’s commutes and needs, but they should see for themselves what $1.2 million should get them. And they’ll realize how overpriced Marston truly is.
