Serramar in La Mesa-good time to buy now?

My wife and I looked at this community and were impressed with the floorplans, but not with the steep HOA that really had no amenities. We’re more in the entry level market, so the smallest plan (2,077-sf) caught our eye. There is currently a bank owned on the market for $519,900, and the builder model fully furnished for $640k. I’m waiting for more foreclosures as well and anticipate the smaller plans to get down to the mid $400s. Also, half the community is in the La Mesa schools, while the other half is in the Spring Valley schools – definitely something to consider.

You are right about the school situation. La Mesa schools are generally better. The closest high school is Helix and it is a charter, so I do not know if that gives you a choice of other schools to go to or not.

I agree, the floor plans are pretty nice. The model with furniture is not worth the asking price as the furnitures are cheap and not practical. I would definitely recommend waiting as more foreclosures will come on the market within the next few years.

There is a new home on the market. It looks very nice but seems to be overpriced for this neighborhood….
