Red Door Deal @ Carriage Run in CV

[Coronita]

I think the reason why Pardee homes have been very slow to build and reluctant to lower price is because they own those land for a very very long time now. So their cost for land is low and they know that good time will come again some day if they wait long enough. There's really no incentive for them to churn out a lot of homes quickly and lower price.

Pardee's not even close to being done. I read in an MLS supplement that the city approved to extend Carmel Mountain Rd in CV to connect to Del Mar Mesa Rd and connect a new Pardee community scheduled to break ground some time this year or next (I forgot exactly when). I'll try to dig up that mls listing.

 

Zk, thanks for the info on B.R. The thing I find odd, is this community is in a really bad location. The power lines are very visible from the lots.

 

 

*Edit* Found the info:

 

"PLEASE READ THIS REGARDING THE CARMEL MTN. RD. EXTENSION: THE CITY HAS APPROVED FUNDING FOR CARMEL MTN. RD. TO BE CONNECTED TO LITTLE MCGONIGLE RANCH RD. (FORMERLY DEL MAR MESA RD.) THE PLANS FOR THIS ROAD ON CURRENTLY ON HOLD UNTIL THE SHAW LORENZ COMMUNITY IS COMPLETED BY PARDEE (CONSTRUCTYION ON THE LUXURY COMMUNITY IS SET TO BEGIN 4-17-08). WHEN THE ROAD IS CONSTRUCTED IT WILL BE A TWO-LANE (ONE IN EACH DIRECTION), MEANDERING ROAD (NO MORE THAN 60' WIDE) CONNECTING CARMEL COUNTRY HIGHLANDS TO DEL MAR MESA. IT WILL BE LESS THAN ONE MILE IN LENGTH AND WILL TRAVERSE THE OPEN SPACE OF LOS PENASQUITOS RESERVE. INCLUDED IN THEPROJECT WILL BE A WILD-LIFE CROSSING UNDER CARMEL MTN RD AND A MULTI-USE (FOOT/BIKE PATH) TRAIL WILL ALSO BE INCLUDED. THIS WILL NOT DIRECTLY CONNECT TO THE 56! CONSERVATIONISTS AND RESIDENTS HAVE OPPOSED THIS. I HAVE VERIFICATION OF THIS FROM THE CITY OF SD. THIS WILL BE A SMALL ROAD (NOTHING LIKE CARMEL COUNTRY RD) FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND LOCAL RESIDENTS TO ACCESS."

Pardee’s not even close to being done.

I completely agree. I had a chat w/ a sale person at Portico last year and he said they have a lot planned for CV/PHR. He mentioned they’ll be building well into 2012. However, at this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ll push it to beyond 2012. Maybe, they wait for bottom to hit around 2012-2015 in CV and finish the rest then. Who knows, but they’ve waited since 1970s, so another few years won’t hurt.

That road has always been planned to link the two nieghborhoods…more for fire evacuation then anything else. Soccer moms in SUVs, and mid life crisis dads in bmw’s can’t use it to get to the freeway…it would make the trip 5 times as long.

Here it is on google, they beat us to it!

Yesterday my wife and I went to one of Carriage Runs’s “Red Door Deal”. We were primarily interested in one of the Plan One house which has a bigger backyard, despite Plan One’s small house size. They put the property in MLS for a range of “799k to 829k”. We figured that maybe we could talk it down to like 780k and get Pardee throw in many more upgrades and landscaping, we would still buy it because my wife like the community. However, after talking to a sale woman there we quickly found out Pardee never intends to sell that house for 799k. They just put it in MLS hoping to lure in some uninformed buyer with greedy buyer’s agent (Pardee gives 3% kickback to agent if the buyer has never been there before). We were completely pissed off.

Then we were shown their Plan 1 homes promoted in the Red Carpet Deal. Two of them have the backyard landscape finished. But they have very tiny lot (3200 sq. feet) and backyard so landscape is easy anyway. They are still asking for 770k to 780k for those tiny homes (3 Bed, 3 bath, 1980 sq feet, but it feels smaller), even when they are actually leftover from 3-4 releases before!!!
Plus unlike existing home owners, Pardee does NOT need to pay the 6% commission!

We kept going to check out house in Carriage Runs, hoping that Pardee will finally come to their sense and give us homebuyers some break. But no break! No real deal, just gimmick!!!
