FYI: Current “deal” in Derby Hills, Carmel Valley

The houses built in 2000 that are selling for similar prices went on the market for the low $400’s new. I’m afraid that all the fancy flooring and other BS upgrades aren’t going to make a half million dollar house worth what the builders are trying to get for them. There is no argument to support these houses (or new ones like them) tripling in value in 7 years…..none.

those are pretty the exact same “incentives” i got when i bought mine back in the end of 2006; except that they paid the agent 2.5% (instead of flat 25k) and I got some percentage of that. Being the only builder there, i guess pardee isn’t worried about clearing the inventory…
Also, I would welcome a strip mall with decent cheap eats. (but hell no low income housing)

Low Income Housing in san diego is completely misunderstood. First off it is Affordable Housing meaning the income component that you are talking about is up to 125% of the San diego Median Income. This means Fireman, Police Officer, Techers, Managers at your local Food Stores ec.

These are the same people you were praying for during the wid fires. To turn around and say that you are against this is condecenidng and misinformed. Firest understand the issue. Than make a decsion as to the viability of Housing programs in the area.

I don’t mind having socially responsible people as neighbors. But, there are other types of people in this group.

http://www.abag.ca.gov/services/finance/fan/housingmyths2.htm

“In areas comprised mostly of low-income housing – particularly those areas lacking jobs, responsive police, and community services – crime can be higher. Local governments can help blunt the effect of such concentrations of low-income housing in any one place by accommodating their share of the state’s need for new affordable housing, by encouraging the development of affordable apartments and duplexes in scattered locations, and by approving mixed-income residential developments.”

the truth is, i paid so damn much to buy into this neighborhood, it would sting to have someone pay so little to do the same.
