Anyways, agree with xbox suggestion. Drive around the ‘hood and go to open houses will give you a better feel of what’s available and how much. Also opportunity to see and talk to the agents – you might find your agent that way. For $700K, you should be able to get something in west clairemont/bay ho/morena; and maybe even one with a view of the bay.[/quote]
Agree with the italicized portion. Homes in northern 92110 and the southern and western portion of 92117 (as opposed to 92111/northern and eastern 92117) are “worth” ~$700K. I really feel like the OP may still be able to find a cosmetic fixer, especially in SW 92117 … that is, IF he has given up on parking a big toy on his lot.
You can “shake your head” all you want, ltsdd, but most of those early ’60’s tracts in Clairemont (92111) weren’t built very well. They were built for an ~$11K purchase price primarily to house defense workers and their families who relocated here from “flyover country.”
