Low Income Housing Effect on Property Values?

[Happs]

No I haven’t, but I’m sure if you do an internet search on crime in public housing. section 8 crime, or housing authority crime, you might worry about living in close proximity to one of these properties. If the landlords of these properties did better background checks on public housing tenants, you would have less crime.

I understand what you think you might have read on the “internet,” Happs, but SD doesn’t have any “public housing” or “public housing tenants.” SD’s Housing Authority relies on private landlords to accept Section 8 vouchers. The waiting list is very, very long and the application and qualification process is very thorough. As an applicant/tenant, if you had been on a waiting list 3-12 years for a Section 8 voucher and finally received one (making your $1180 mo rent effectively $221) would you fvck it up by causing trouble at your rental property complex??

[quote=sdrealtor][quote=bearishgurl]Oh, and I forgot to mention that the majority of rental complexes in 92107 (also adjacent to 92106) accept Section 8. In fact, this zip code may be one of the zip codes in the county sporting the MOST “Section 8” tenants :-}

IMO, the most coveted residences in this county lie within 92106 . . . by far. And it’s wedged between TWO Section 8/govm’t housing locales.

You can’t get away from Section 8, unless you live within a Covenant. So my advice is to “get over it” and be happy :=)[/quote]

Most coveted by whom?[/quote]
I have to agree with sdr. The basic rules of supply and demand would suggest that the most coveted residences would be the ones with the highest price per square foot. La Jolla, RSF and Del Mar all have higher prices per square foot than 92106, La Jolla and RSF being about 20% more (according to Trulia). There might be others – but I think BG has mixed up what she covets with what most people covet.

Actually, I believe SFR’s in 92106 far outnumber the SFR’s in 92014 and 92067 (not sure about 92037). Therefore, there are likely many more listings and sales in 92106 than the other areas.

In addition, there are Section 8 units (likely NOT complexes) in 92037 and 92014 but not in 92067.
