You might want to check out sdlookup.com. The zip codes for the areas you mentioned would be 92131 for Scripps and 92130 for CV. Lots of good information there–PPSF/HOA Fees/Mello Roos, Schools, etc. Also, there are several great realtors on this forum, who, I’m sure, would be glad to work with you.

If you check out previous posts by SD Realtor in particular, you will note that the areas you desire are still very “sticky” with regard to
price–because they are so desirable.

We own a home in La Jolla, and, it seems, pricing is “sticky” here, too. Only time will tell to what degree prices in the most desirable areas will fall. You could always try making offers if you find something you like.

Have heard from a couple of friends that they “might” be negotiating at “The Crosby.” It seems to depend on whether anything has recently fallen out of escrow, etc.–don’t know if they’ll go under $1MM or not.

If you are really interested in the area, you might want to give them your price range, and ask them to let you know if anything comes up. You also might want to look at Avaron at Del Sur, and The Lakes, in the same general area. In all of these areas you would be well-positioned with schools, etc., should that need arise in the future.

As far as the coast is concerned, it may be awhile before you see 5000sf on an acre for under a mil. Unless it’s a real dump, you’ll see a line from here to LA to buy it.

We have about that square footage on almost an acre in the LJCC area, and most of the homes for sale around us are going for over $5MM++ at the moment, but you never know what the future might hold.

If I were you, I’d probably enlist the services of a great realtor in the San Diego area (several post on this forum)
and have them watch the market for you. They might also be able to negotiate a deal on your behalf with a builder, should you decide to go with a “new build.”

Good Luck!

*I should have added, I echo the caution expressed by other posters regarding buying in Oceanside. Yes, it’s a lot less expensive–there are many reasons why, and most of them are not good–especially with regard to resale. However, if all of the negatives don’t bother you, you will definitely get more for your money.

Even though my wife and I work in film and TV in Hollywood, we’ve always driven fairly conservative, gas efficient
cars–unlike most of our peers in the business who have commensurately high incomes. We had a couple of SUV’s when
the kids were younger, but we always seemed to use the smaller cars more often.

Now a friend wants to sell me his Tesla, and I may bite, because it may prove to be the best of both worlds–a sports car that is fuel efficient. He was one of the first on the list for it, and now has to let it go because of a divorce and some financial problems. Should be an interesting ride.
