I’ve noticed that down turns per zip in SD COUNTY are largely varied. I’ve found a nice town home in Point Loma that I’m seriously considering, but my husband is essentially concerned that we might be jumping in to soon. I’ve done some research and found that the 92106 area really only dropped 2.3% since 2007 according to MDA Dataquick reports. Anyone have a comment about this? Per zip does make sense to me. I think the drop in prices are heavily scewed by the areas that are hardest hit. I want to live in Point Loma because my husband is Navy and we want to be close to the Sub Base for obvious reasons. Traffic down Roscrans in the morning can be hairy at best. Advice???

January 22, 2009 at 11:08 AM #333270sdduuuudeParticipantPer zip code is important because the timing of each zip code is different. The economy affects different economic brackets at different times.
However, none are immune. Right now, be most afraid of those that have not dropped much.
Also – look back to 2005, not just 2007.
And, be sure to separate condos from SFR by zip code.
We often get posters here who are trying to find information and opinions to help settle differences between spouses. We typically side with the spouse who thinks they should wait.
This is a great time to rent in San Diego. San Diego is a great place, but most people stress about the high cost of buying a house. But, renting aint that bad. Rent a great place and enjoy San Diego without worrying about depreciation, maintenance, homeowner fees and the like.
You definitely don’t want to buy a place if you could potentially move soon – as a military family, that is. You’ll lose 6% just in the transcaction.
You saw the Matrix? Your husband has taken the red pill.
