Scripps Ranch…What say you…

[GoUSC]

We would rather spend much less than $900k of course. There are several nice homes in the Scripps Ranch area for around $750-$850k. We are just going to keep renting and watching the market and waiting for the right property. Thanks again!

[quote=GoUSC]Thanks for all the comments everyone! Lot’s of good info… We currently rent in Bay Ho / Bay Park (on Baker just off of Chicago). I like this area but the houses are small, the lots are small and, to be honest, a lot of people here don’t maintain their houses at all so the neighborhood looks shoddy in parts.

We are going to continue our hunt and look at some houses in the Scripps Ranch area (the one we are looking at is in OLD Scripps south of Pomerado). My girlfriend is concerned about the fire risk there and it might be something she won’t get over.

We also really love Mission Hills but home prices are high and it will be a push for us to afford there. Ideally we want to be looking at a conforming loan which, with our deposit, means 900k or less.

Thanks again everyone!!![/quote]

Fire risk is very high in SR and some of the homes south of Pomerado were rebuilt due to the fire in 2003. There are some nice homes in 4S Ranch too.

My read on Scripps (and I can tell you about every listing here because I scrutinize them bigtime for myself) is that it should depreciate in a stronger manner if you can wait another 1-2 years. Old Scripps has depreciated slower then Stonebridge due to stronger leverage in that area.

I have been inside all of the homes that are currently on the MLS south of Pomerado that are under 900k. I like the one on Fairbrook but I wish it was a 4 bedroom and for my family we need more of a yard with alot of open space. I like the home though and the kitchen is very nice. Chantemar is a nice area south of Pomerado that we like. On the other side of the coin I am not a huge fan of the homes on Pinecastle. They are nice on the inside but the spacing between them is very poor, yards are small… yada yada.

As for the fire hazard yes alot of Scripps is in a fire hazard zone. However there are alot of beautiful areas in San Diego that are in fire hazard zones. You have to make that assessment on your own of whether it is something you want to live with or not.

I would say this, I think alot of places that you are looking at in the 800-900 range will be down 10-15% in 2 years.

Sunny, 4S is a fire hazard as well. Also no MR in Old Scripps. Not true for 4S.
