    I agree, u. I looked at that pic pretty close and even went to Google Street View. Looks like house has been recently repainted, but I think it was for naught.

    That roof line jumped out at me too. Close-ups of the roof appear to show fiberglass faux tile roof with waves worse than anything I’ve ever seen. I think this thing is a tear down, beyond repair. The poster in the upstairs window of the man in the tux is a nice touch. Makes it real classy. 🙂

    You’d basically be paying for the lot, which sits right on a busy street in one of the least desirable areas.

    Which leads to the question: why did the OP think that no areas of SD would have windows with bars? Every large city has questionable neighborhoods.

    [quote=ucodegen]Man, that house looks sad. Take a look at the roof-line at the eves. Somethings not right. Also look near the chimney and roof-line intersect. Post to the right of the front door is also leaning to the right. Termites?

    Says foundation ‘failed’.. but usually foundations don’t just ‘fail’. They fail if they have been built incorrectly. It also looks like this one was built when houses were not built on slabs.[/quote]

    uco, it is common in 92102 to find a property that needs a corner jacked up of a house on a raised “pier and post” foundation . . . very common. It’s not anywhere near as expensive as repairing a concrete slab and many homeowners do this. The rewards for undergoing this “major” repair can be great.

    Yes, Ricechex, I just looked at the property and questioned its 92102 zip code. It’s on the 92102/92113 line. Across the street is 92113 (Logan Heights/Southcrest area).

    birmingplumb, when I referred to 92102 on your other thread as being a “quiet place to live,” I was referring to “Golden Hill.” Please consider only units located north of Market St and preferably north of Broadway for your son.
