ParticipantThank you! How about installation and maintenance? Can it be done without an installer?

Participant[quote=ocrenter]We dropped by Marston and found the homes essentially squeezed into tiny lots on the non-powerline side, and the side with decent lot size had the powerlines. Making the whole development highly undesirable.
MR and HOA are probably about the same, but you’ll have a gated community with the Lakes. So resale wise the Lakes will likely hold up better.[/quote]
I agree with ocrenter as well. I feel that Marston is way overpriced for the location and lot size. I’m not sure if Scripps Ranch or Poway would work for you locationwise. But there are nice homes there without the Mello Roos.

ParticipantFlipping homes has become more popular again which is a sign of a forming bubble. I don’t think these 2 homes are worth anywhere their asking price-$1.2-1.3 million would be more reasonable.

ParticipantIt looks like 1712 Beryl is back on the market now. I agree that the location is very poor due to heavy traffic. One could spend $2 million on a much nicer home elsewhere.

ParticipantI have been very happy with “Wawanesa Insurance”. Their rate is also one of the lowest.

ParticipantAgree with sister. If I had to pay $1.3 million for a home I would hate having to look at power lines and live in an area where most other models cost less. I think resale will be a major problem if you don’t want to lose money.

ParticipantWe went back yesterday with some friends and the place was packed with visitors. I spoke to some people there and they said that the inventory is really low. With the interest rates trending up a lot of people are trying to jump in despite the high prices.

ParticipantHOA is $160-170/month.
MR is around $6,800-7,200/yearVery high MR indeed…

ParticipantIt’s not only the noise but also the exhaust of cars that are concerning. Unless you keep your windows closed all the time homes close to the road have issues with poor air quality.

ParticipantI think that you will do fine if you don’t expect any significant appreciation and plan to keep the home for at least 10 years. Space in San Diego is limited and there will always be demand for homes this size. However, I would recommend looking for existing homes also as great deals can be found. Another area that is attractive for families is Scripps Ranch.
