Thanks for the insight guys. North of 52 is no problem for us either. Maybe time will shave off some $$$ on Scripps. Watching the monitor. It’s the wife who is really looking to cut down her commute and she works in the traffic hell that is UTC. Don’t know how the commute is from Poway or Scripps Ranch, but those are still looking pretty pricey. University City is faceless and overpriced. I’m not a fan of Carmel Valley for much the same reason. We will have sufficient equity to sit on because we have owned forever and are not greedy.
It’s a typical dilemma for San Diego – neighborhood with some character, not-hellish commute to UTC job, decent price. I think only time gets us back to a favorable look at that. That’s why I think selling now and renting leaves the most options. For us.
