[quote=sdrealtor] … AS for SW Esco or other areas, the CAR family could also be living in a larger custom home on 1/2 acre plus lot not a tract home. I would also question whether the price differential included at least 6 months of rent you paid while doing a major remodel. Additionally the cost of a major remodel and expansion of the house. Not that you wouldnt have done alot to any property but my guess is the construction bill and rent went well into 6 figures … [/quote]
I agree with this statement but not sure it applies to CAR. The custom property they could have had in SW Esco for same or similar price as the (tract home?) they bought in LC would have likely had more privacy, very mature trees and GREAT bones to work with, thus negating the need for an increased footprint. It very well could have been dated inside (cosmetic fixer) but would have been far less work and expense to make it liveable.
However, is does NOT lie in NCC (“nirvana”) but is a relatively short drive away.
I myself would prefer the more private custom cosmetic fixer on 1/2 + AC over a tract home in nirvana. But that’s just me.
