plan 2 at Arbor Ranch is 2200 sqft for $400k.

http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-110022072-1451_Beechtree_Rd_San_Marcos_CA_92078

an SEH 2100 sqft resale is asking $470k

http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-110006536-1773_Weatherwood_Ct_San_Marcos_CA_92078

another SEH 2300 sqft short sale just sold for $440k

both the resale and the short sale already have landscaping done. you’ll probably need to spend another $50k for a new home that size, which means essentially you’ll pay the same price in the end but end up getting very different environment and schools.

good job on saying no!

[quote=recordsclerk]Most of us on this blog have said at one time or another that Santuary by Shea is far superior to Montoro or Serenity in quality and appearance. At $895 that house is a better deal than any Serenity home on the market new or used.
Here is a sold comp that just closed for plan 1 Santuary. This is basically a single story home with two story master suite with loft.

What a great deal.[/quote]

That is a great deal. No doubt about it.

With comparable lots selling for $350k, assuming $100/sqft building cost or $450k, plus $200k in upgrades and pool, it is very much at below replacement cost.
