Thanks for the info guys. I will probably do what I did last time I felt the itch and sign on to another 6 month lease in November.
TG, what types of statistics are you tracking? I have kept a notebook with the MLS listings of all of the neighborhoods that we are considering. And for our Friday night fun we update prices and print out new listings. It’s fun to see where prices have gone from January 2006 to now, but its just that, fun. Now that we are getting more serious about buying what should I start really looking at and where can I find the information?
This site and contributors are incredible…even the OT posts.
Jim, when we get serious about buying we will give you a call. I don’t want to waste your time with us fence sitters (even though my feet are dangling on the buying side). And as far as settling for a cheaper area…we are pretty much sold on being in the Mission Estancia, OPE, El Camino Creek or La Costa Heights elem. boundaries. Of course I would love a newer house…I am looking more at the floorplan, location and lot size, everything else can be updated in time. We have two small children and would like to find a development with a pool, parks, and other amenities.
