ParticipantAn update to the thread for the benefit of those, such as quote from poster below, who don’t know how safe 4S Ranch is in terms of fire danger.
4spotentialbuyer,
You sound pretty desperate to buy a house in 4S. Perhaps the salesperson senses that, in that case they hold all the cards. I recently toured 4s, I was not impressed. Plus you are in high wildfire risk area., there were vast burn areas in surrounding areas. Why on earth anyone in their right mind choose to live near there? I personally have redlined areas of San Diego county due to wildfire risk.grateful owner . . . .

GuestListen I’m in the insurance business.
The 4S area of Rancho Bernardo is considered a high risk wildfire area, this is based on the latest fire risk maps and historical fire risk maps going back 100 years.
If you choose to live in a high risk fire area just understand the potential risks. Building codes only go so far. Shelter-in-place concepts are problematic and roundly criticized by many in fire protection. I personally would not want to risk my family.
In addition, I would not want to have be in a large mass community evacuation at 2am, with large numbers of cars clogging all the arteries while fire traveling at 40mph bears down on all the exits.

Out of curiousity, where in San Diego will you be buying your home? Just wondering–based on your insurance background.
We have been La Jolla residents for many years, and have heard reports that even we could be subjected to wildfires that could barrel down the inland canyons right down to the coast. Kind of scary, when you consider properties in our neighborhood now start at $4MM.
