The tax assessment info was very helpful, thanks. I think that’s a better system than where I live now. Some here are taxed out of their homes they bought decades ago. The county takes an annual valuation average for a district then applies that rate to all homeowners in that district. And in today’s sky high valuations……you see the picture.
I used to live in the Monterey peninsula back in the 80’s and even then I liked San Diego’s location, people mix and weather. So the area would not be a complete unknown.
