[quote=jficquette][quote=Scarlett]Looking forward to significant rate raise and the corresponding price decrease. My downpayment would be then 20% of a “better” house. Too old for a another starter property :).[/quote]

That’s the other shoe to drop. People buying now with ultra low rates are going to be in for a rude surprise if rates get to 8%.[/quote]

Do you mean that if rates get to 8% prices will drop and people buying nowadays (at about 5%) will be underwater?

I still have my doubts of both those 2 things will ever happen – – rates rise to 8% and prices dropping further…especially in the “better” school district areas. I wanted to believe it and hoped for it for a long time, but I don’t know anymore. Hope spring eternal though 🙂

No tsunami, but maybe a smaller wave? There must be quite a bit of shadow inventory, releasing all that by next year should at least create a larger inventory?

My daughter was in Montessori (the La Jolla Village one, not the Mt. Soledad) for pre-school and we loved it! Yes, very academically oriented which I am pretty sure that most of the places you are talking about are not doing. (However we don’t have direct experience with the others). We liked this particular school because it was a “lighter” version of Montessori implementation. They weren’t quite as strict and regimented and quiet as we saw at others Montessori schools. they were more flexible and accomodating. Kids were happy and still kids.

Many of the parents in our class are sending their kids off to K in public schools (La Jolla).There are a few that will continue with 1 yr of Montessori kindergarten at the same location.

If you are looking for about full-day accomodations anyway , I don’t think the fees are quite that much different between different options. The extra bucks are worth it, IMHO. Ours is about $1000/month (till 3 pm) and $5/hr until 5:30 pm. Montessori however has more vacations/breaks/holidays so you have to plan for that (i.e. camps at YMCA, Kids Ventures, etc.).
