Participant[quote=Eugene]You might find this thread interesting:
The commute from SEH to La Jolla is pretty bad … unless you somehow manage to avoid rush hour altogether by working flexible hours. (I timed the commute from UTC to SEH once leaving at 7 pm, it was around 30 min; leave any sooner than that, you’ll be stuck in traffic.) Doubly bad when it rains – it might top 1 hour one way. Somewhat better to Olivenhain, but I don’t see those houses crossing below $1 mil mark in the foreseeable future.[/quote]
Thanks, Eugene, that was a helpful link.

ParticipantAzure gets a thumbs up from me : ) I prefer the view side of Genoa but I also like the top of the hill and quietness of Milan way. Schoolhouse way is above my price range and I find it curious the build quality is better in Azure? I am looking for a view home preferably on Glencrest, Stargaze, Genoa, or Milan and am hoping to be able to get one <650K.

ParticipantWe moved from La Jolla to SHE and have been renting for almost a year. We had similar reasons for moving(kids,yard) and similar concerns. That is why we decided to rent. The commute is not that big of a deal. Friday’s are usually bad but the square footage, yard, neighbors, and community outweigh the extra commute time. I can personally say our quality of life truly has improved.
I have friends that live in Azure and many have already walked. There will be more in the next year. However several people sold existing homes and put the $400,000 equity into their Azure home and are staying put. Not everyone is hosed.
About the car stereotype(for what it’s worth)…most of the people that I know personally who walked are the ones that had H2’s and Escalades.
The builder was Shea homes. They are building a community in Carlsbad that is beautiful. They seem to do good work and I haven’t heard of anyone having major problems.
I think your hesitation is right on. I think 6 months to 1 year you can get the same home for $25-$45 less per square foot. That is just my opinion having watched SEH for two years. Or just low ball. I would NOT spend $200 per square foot here because we are still declining.
