GuestLong time since there was a comment on this, but finally you have someone who bought at Copperwood in here. I bought one of the phase 1 homes in Aug/Sept ’09. I’m happy, house is great, service from ColRich has been good.
I’m comfortable with the pricing. Who knows what the summer will bring, but there’s a reasonable chance that the housing will have a slower than usual recovery while excess inventory is slowly worked out of the system. Copperwood compares pretty well with the other house listings, so about even on the underlying final sale price.
Financing is certainly a problem for some; we were the 3rd buyer of this house because two others couldn’t get the finance in place. Phase 2 has one or two houses yet to close, I think they have buyers lined up, but we were not the only onces who had to wait while others tried to deal with their unrealistic loan expectations. There are a couple of Phase 4 houses (the west facing lots) yet to sell, but then again they are only being framed at the moment.
I was over at the ColRich SolTerre (I think that’s what its called) the other day and they seem to be selling them almost as quickly as they can be built.

ParticipantWe bought in Phase 1 across Rancho Santa Fe in Rockledge (the smaller homes) We’re very happy. Lots of great views of the canyon out the back and ocean/lagoon out the side and front. We have only 1 neighbor, so privacy is great. The lot is pretty small though. Colrich has been pretty good with repairs as they come up. I stop by the sales office once in a while and they are doing well. 27 of 33 sold since they opened in June 09. Prices are slightly up from Phase 1 to Phase 4, but nothing significant… maybe 5-15K.

GuestWe joined the copperwood community as well. We really enjoy the new house. The main selling points for us were:
(i) school district
(ii) house design/floor plan/size/lot location/view
(iii) timing/prices/mortgage rates
(iv) new pool “Splash” close by, and the older LC Oaks pool 1 mile away.
(v) neighbors who can afford to buy a 800k house in the current lending market can typically afford to build up and maintain their lanscaping- something our old community lacked.The new phase in the cul de sac being built have been priced 20-40k above what we paid, they are nearly all under contract.
