Thanks for the advice, waiting is probably the way to go.
I’m in town for a few days and took a drive yesterday around the area. GPS is awesome! The relocation company had sent in advance some info on areas to look. I did like Carmel valley areas, I hear that schools there are decent.
Even though I have already eliminated fire prone areas, the realtor suggested I also take a look at the 4S area anyway. It was disheartening. The 4S area has huge blackened area on hillsides next to it. The housing there is a bit too cookie cutter for me, lots are small, but hey I’m in California now. There seemed to be alot of for sale signs everywhere, just like home town DC. I’m gonna drive a bit more today and get my bearings, perhaps drive up the coast. Any advice on Del mar, Encinitas?
I’ll move into a corporate furnished apt in the UTC area, for 4 months early next year, and will have option to renew on my own nickel at termination of corp contract. From what I saw of UTC, looked like alot of condos.
