[quote=sdrealtor]One last thing on SEH pricing. The 1400 sq ft townhomes in SEH are now selling around 300K (down from nearly 500K at peak). Investors are picking them up as they are cash flowing. Could something happen that will cause a cataclysmic shift in pricing…time for that crystal ball. Barring that, 2800 sq ft ocean view homes with lots of space around them for $300K would seem unlikely.[/quote]

So…? are you implying that SEH with my desirables is near or about 6 months away from bottoming?

And could you recommend a second or third area choice since you kinda know my story and SEH seems to be the winner of the PP Thumbs Down Award?

Also… you pretty much nailed my LCV situation. Any way to contact you directly on this forum? I need an agent.

I am 56 and work from home and quality of life issues are important to me. My nature is not suited for condo life for an extended period.

I really envision an ocean view and sunsets with lots of space around. The fewer the neighbors the better. Plus my sons visit often and I have a band (headphone practices) so I need (want?) extra rooms.

As far as more kids… I got snipped last week. Shwinng!

Thanks for your replies folks. Much appreciated.

My most appealing scenario (this week) of the 30 or so that I’ve outlined these past few months, is to move in with my girlfriend (been dating one year TODAY!). She has a condo in Del Mar. At around $800 a month (my share), I could save money and watch area homes continue their pricing-death-spiral and then jump back in (buy) when the bubble bursting nuclear winter begins to clear.

Which brings up the next, “crystal ball” question; how long before we hit bottom? Does anyone see 2,800 sq. feet in SEH hitting $300K (or less) or Aviara grinding down to low $400Ks for 3,000 sq. feet? Will we see 2000 pricing again?

Yeah, I know. Who knows? But it would be nice to get an idea how long my condo-colony life will be.

After living in large, elegant homes for years, renting a small condo is not very appealing but these are unique times so I guess prudent strategies (sacrifices?) are in order. And you guys bring up good points about divorce transitions. This freedom is sweet.
