[quote=ocrenter]guys, take it from someone that lives there, listen to localguy. calabria sucks to the max, every one of those homes are within a few feet away from high voltage lines, something that folks with the means for million dollar homes will simply not consider.
localguy said to look for existing distressed homes instead of going to the builders, I think I know what he meant:
here’s a 5390 sqft “Tiburon” that went for $975,000, or $180/sqft, this one already has the built-in fridge plus flooring and everything else:
yet, someone was stupid enough to buy the cheaply built Montoro at 5000 sqft for $966,000.[/quote]
Compared to the “Scripps Preserve” homes “Montoro” is definitely overpriced in my opinion. Also, the location is awful, some of the homes are sitting deep down in the canyon with no view whatsoever and the lots are so big that it will take a fortune to landscape them. I think the builder will have to lower the price significantly before any buyers will come…
As for “Calabria”, the homes are quite nice abut also overpriced and if you consider a resale it will be almost impossible to even break even. We are very glad we didn’t buy here as some other nicer homes in Scripps Ranch have come up for sale with lower MR and location.
