Ex-SD: Certain homebuilders are already making the move to smaller homes. Those monolithic 4,000sf monsters will probably go the way of the dodo. Too expensive to maintain for one thing. Can you imagine cooling a 4,000sf home through a Temecula summer?
I think even the ultra-high end will feel something of a pinch as well. There are homes fronting the SF Bay that are knocking fairly significant chunks off of their asking price. The house Burt Reynolds owns in Florida was just reduced in price by a large amount as well.

I love this line.
Sums it up to a freakin T.
I was scanning the Point Loma Inventory today.
The last line of a MLS supplement gave me a chuckle.… or taking in some fresh air while BBQing in your child-safe fenced backyard. “Come live the fairytale.”
Freudian slip?

January 31, 2008 at 10:39 AM #146410RockemsockParticipantWow, it’s about time. I still remember moving to San Diego in 2001 and renting on the beach in Encinitas. I had never owned a home but was starting to look and I thought “if only i could find that fixer in a good part of town”…early in 2002 I crossed the railroad tracks in Encinitas and started looking behind Scripps Hospital. I found a place that looked like it was out of a Troma Horror movie. No yard, just dirt, original 1954 paint job on a box that was barely standing. I grab the flyer, and read that it’s going for 700k. I was astonished. Obviously I have come to realize that I was totally in the dark regarding property values. Would be great to see those come down a bit…although i doubt that area will ever be down in my price range.
