12882 Francine, Poway ($499k)

[quote=CA renter]If not for the commute, those listings just might convince Mr. CAR and I to move to Poway. I really like those homes, and the price is right, compared to what we’ve been looking at! :)[/quote]

That’s sarcasm, isn’t it?

500k for a 1500 sf 40-year-old house on a 7000 sf lot is nuts. The only thing that can possibly justify that price is PUSD. And I’m not certain about that, either. I’ve been driving past a rank 7 high school on my way to & from work for the last six months and it looks like a perfectly civil place to me. (I might get a better idea when my kids are old enough for high school, which will be roughly 10 years from now – assuming that I’m still in San Diego at that time. My fall-back plan is to rent a granny flat in PUSD for $600/month and to use it to send kids to Rancho Bernardo High.)

I wish it were. Not because I think standard, 1,500sf houses should sell for $500K, but because those same houses would be selling for $650-700K in our neighborhood. 🙁

[quote=Eugene]Seems pricey, getting homeowner’s insurance may be difficult, and are you okay with 34% free lunches in elementary school? (some people aren’t).

A model match in Mira Mesa might go as low as 350.[/quote]

Ha, that’s low! You should see the free-lunch .pct in my hood.

Edit: That’s a pretty sweet looking place compared to the dreck in San Marcos.
