    [quote=nostradamus]Interesting SDEng. I had wondered about that.

    What kind of advantage would a “twin home” have over an SFR? The way I see it, you pay SFR price for a condo life!

    Yes AN, those sales comps in 2008 are what have me perplexed. Even then there were cheaper houses. I wonder if it’s because this is just about the furthest North-West in Mira Mesa you can get.[/quote]

    I don’t think a twin home has an advantage here… but I owned one in the Philly suburbs… a 100 year old, victorian style, twin home.

    The advantages
    – I had one less exterior wall to heat. That’s not a value in our climate… but back east it reduced my heating bills.
    – I had the benefit of a guard dog, without the work. (neighbors dog barked at people coming onto my porch, lol.)

    Mine was fee simple… property line ran exactly through the fire/party wall. No HOA’s. Only covenant prevented me from having a tannery or a manure pit in my back yard. (Seriously.) My neighbors on the other side of the wall were great… it was a good experience.

    SFR 2 just went pending after 7 days on the market. Will be interesting to see what the closed price will be.

    The home on Norcanyon has had alot of offers. I had an offer in for someone at slightly below asking that was rejected with no counter offer. Not sure if it will go over 450k but will not be surprised. No appliances in the home either. Definitely wrecking the comps for that submarket.
