Thanks for the great info. I’ll add CV to my searches since it definitely sounds like it has potential. Ideally, I’d like something in one of the coastal beach towns, but I’ll take what works for my budget.
I guess, my ideal buying locations would be in this order:
La Jolla (probably won’t get cheap enough for me)
Del Mar
Encinitas
Solano Beach
Carlsbad
Any thoughts on the condos/townhomes next to the Del Mar racetrack or the stuff in UTC? UTC seems to be a lot of condo conversions which I’d like to avoid.
I’m not going to get serious about buying out there until this winter, but I want to start keeping my eyes open.
