no more land, thus the bottom must be close?

[paranoid]

I have been driving around the north county. I don’t see a lot of free land available to build more houses. In fact both Del Sur and 4S ranch don’t have that many empty slots anymore.

While the population keeps increasing. does this means that the bottom of this housing slump will be contained and mild? This looks like to be the case if you look at Case-Shiller index.

Based on this, it’s difficult to see a much more decline in Sd home prices. Do I miss anything?

Um, yeah… you’ve missed something.

Wow, I think you’re onto something there. There’s no more land so prices aren’t gonna fall. Better get out there and buy a house before the prices start going up again. If you don’t act now, you’ll be priced out forever. Everyone wants to live in California, after all.

I could go on but there’s really no point.

but can you really refute the fact there are really very limited amount of slots available for building?

Can you refute that San Diego is one of the most desired places to live if people can afford to?

It just appears that there is no more land because the houses you are looking at are almost as big as the lots.There is a plenty of land if you look to the east. Believe it or not the houses & land east of here all the way to the Carolinas can affect prices in San Diego. People and businesses will go there, as they have been doing,if this county doesn’t come back to San Diego’s regular high prices. There would be a lot of expensive empty bank owned houses in San Diego. IMO

Couple of question?
Why has buying slowed down enormously in the last few years? Why are there so many foreclosures here and on the way?

In the absence of a boat, raft, log, or branch, paranoid has latched onto a twig in the hopes that it will save him from the rapids ahead.

If you’ve actually lived in SD for more than a few months, you’ll know that there is PLENTY of land if we were to actually NEED more houses. Unless you’re privey to some geological info that leads you to believe that there will be a giant earthquake that will cause SD county to seperate from the rest of North America, and become an island in the Pacific, the “we’re out of land” line is nothing more than poor attempt to convince people to buy.

Of course there are obviously more desireable areas than others, but to say that there is a lack of land to build on is just wrong.

But most jobs are in San Diego, not in the desert. How many people are willing to live in Riverside or Julian while work in San Diego? I know there are a lot of land in Alaska, but does that really help you if you work in San Diego? Common, tell me where are the free land inside San Diego?
