Anyone have any info on Monte Claire in CV?

This sort of came out of this thread…

http://piggington.com/spring_housing_prediction?page=7 (comment on Carmel Valley).

I was curious…Does anyone have any scoop on why there is so much activity particularly in this community Monte Claire?

Seems like we have a bunch of high priced sellers, low priced sellers, REO, short sales, etc.

What’s going on here? Anything unusual, besides a $240 hoa?

Many of these homes were bought at the ‘low’ end, i.e. under a million and many folks look to be trying to get out with some cash before the high end gets hit any harder.

One of those houses belongs to a friend of mine and they are selling due to divorce. They currently have it on the market for about the same or slightly less than they paid in 2001-2002 (and they did quite a bit of remodeling and landscaping). Others on the street are quite a bit more out of touch and are still holding firm to prices of $1.2 to $1.3 which I doubt they’ll get.

They ARE nice houses though if you want a 3000+ sq foot house in CV but the yards aren’t terribly large; my 1100 sq foot house in Allied Gardens has a back yard of comparable size.

They are nice (don’t mind the yard size)….Just the hoa fee is a doozy.

Don’t forget the property tax. My friend pays over $12k a year in property tax at his current assessment. That’s quite a chunk of change.
