Rene. Thanks for the school info. This past month we have written close to a dozen offers on homes in RSF, but also in Santaluz. Many of those have already worked themselves through, particularly all the under $3M ones, where, as I mentioned, there was competition and I don’t take the bait in bidding wars.
My offers in Santaluz were the most agressive for the reasons I mention so that is more of a waiting game. If I could get a home at the price and terms I offered, I could just end up there. Right now, ironically, it is homes there and in FBR left from my round of offers that are still the front runners, though FBR seems more likely, unless the Santaluz sellers finally blink.
Funny, I first found out about Santaluz when a former boss of mine I admire sold his beautiful house in RSF to buy one in Santaluz. I put it on my radar screen, but when I looked into it, I did not get it. His RSF house was just amazing to me when I last went there. My agent convinced me to look in Santaluz anyway and I have been back 5 times now looking at homes. Now I get it. I could happily live there at the right price.
Anyway. It seems very likely I will join the Santaluz club, even if I buy in FBR.
George: I am not sure if there are current listings in Fairbanks Highlands, but there were a few I looked at last year and a few of them may be pocket listings now you can find. The link below will give you info of the area and the agent on the top had a couple listings in there last year. She is very nice and a very honest listing agent from my experience.
Maybe you can hire SD Realtor to look at her listings there. I have learned much from him.
FYI. Just to clarify FBR, Cielo, Crosby, Covenant, Digueno Hills, Rancho Valencia, Bridges, RSF Farms, and a few other areas are all part of RSF. Santaluz, Fairbanks Highlands, and, of course, CV are part of San Diego.
