We’ve been renting for 3 years now, but we haven’t looked actively until now. Only recently we started to think again about buying. but the prices haven’t dropped as much as we wanted. I surely hope for another leg down.

Our requirements are more modest than yours, even 3 bdr. would do, if spacious (>1800 sf). We’d be even ok with a townhome, but in CV or Torrey highlands they are mostly over 500K (the spacious ones), plus MRs plus HOAs – extra 400$/mo to fork. Haven’t been very actively, just internet and driving around for open houses, to get a feel. We even explored other ‘hoods, but usually the commute is the killer.

We’ll probably start looking at 4S (the lower MRs) too.

Good luck with your home search, MANmom.

SD Realtor, do you have any insight about what is going to happen with PQ? Are we going to see finally more inventory this year ( my impression was that is has been trickling for the last 2 years, but maybe I am wrong)? Is it more prone for a downturn?

Any updates about the PQ market, a year later? Is there more inventory now – SFRs in low 500Ks? I am looking for price-to-rent neutral – and those houses are renting for mid 2000s…I see that many of the Torrey Highlands townhomes (Bellarado, Cortina) are below 500K, which puts them at about 2003-2004 original (building) prices…

I was disconcerted by the presence of so many old style power poles and power lines. that gives a very dated air to the community. Those are not the ultra-high voltage ones (I think they are not, but I don’t know for sure), but still… Yes, esthetics aside, I am concerned about close proximity to those and I wouldn’t buy a house near them. You never know. We are going to look up and around us when we look at houses.

UCGal, I am very sorry to hear that about your family. Could have been a combination of genetics and external factors.
