ParticipantFrom speaking with several GC’s, I think you can do $200-250/ft and get a very nice home. I will PM you the name of a contractor I got here from a fellow Pigg. This guy won “builder of the year” for a 12,000 sq ft home in Carlsbad that is decked out to the nines and was done under $200/ft.
One thing to keep in mind is $/ft doesn’t scale linearly. Smaller houses will be more because you still have a kitchen, garage, foundation, water heater, permits, etc. You get big economy of scale at 4500 ft+. At 3000 ft I would expect around $250/ft. But this GC just built an unbelievable 7000 ft estate in Poway for $185/ft.

ParticipantI checked into this – actually called the tax consultant that is responsible for administering the Santaluz MR district.
It is approximately $90,000. It depends on how much has been paid so far, etc.
What killed Santaluz for me was the building restrictions which greatly limit what you can build and add huge costs. Items like hand-laid clay roofs, double walls, and true divided light windows push costs up. Make sure you get a quote from a GC who has worked in Santaluz before. Anything less than around $225/ft is unrealistic.
If you are interested, I’m actually aware of a pocket (off-MLS) listing on Northern Lights for a great lot at a great price. PM me if you are interested and I will send you the details. I’m not a realtor, but I was working with one who told me about this listing.
