I would say that anyone hoping for double digit interest rates is asking for alot more then just low housing prices because if rates are up in the double digits, we will be having alot more to deal with then just housing topics.

Be careful what you ask for.

The best way to learn about trustee sales is to attend the auctions. As DDM said there are plenty of sites you can subscribe to that give you information about notices of defaults and such, however the information may not be fresh.

Yeah I agree Hammer… Crown Point is a lifestyle choice, and the value of the home itself is vastly inflated. For myself with kids and the need for space (home and lot size) it makes no sense. However for people that value proximity to the beach, and such, and who don’t need the big home or yard it may be more appropo…10 years ago it was just my wife and I and no kids and we were always hitting the beach and stuff so it worked out. Still, there is no value there and the price per sq ft is inflated.

I know this street all to well as it is the cross street for where I bought my very first property and lived in for many years. Crown Point is definitely overpriced right now. I have not been in the home itself but saw it as they were building it. Crown Point itself is a pretty nice place to live. It is away from the usual noise of Mission Beach but it does have a share of college kids renting. The more desired portion of Crown Point is a couple blocks south and 2 blocks west of this area. I really like it there alot and will never sell the condo I have there. Anyways this area is close to Crown Point park where the bike path starts that winds around the bay and you can take it all the way down to South Mission beach if you like. Also beware of this property as there really is no yard.

Hi Perry –

Yeah I should have qualified the statement… There is the true million dollar club, (those that can afford that type of home) AND have plenty of assets… and there is the bonehead million dollar club, those who buy a million dollar home, but who really do not have lots of other strong assets and are basing the purchase sheerly on the strength of an annual salary. You are correct, those types will absolutely get hurt much quicker.

Part of life on the blogs is learning to develop a thick skin. Don’t worry about responses that annoy you rather then address the issues you inquire about. I think that you did get what you are looking for in the responses that addressed your question directly. I agree that going hard after the deposit will be difficult at best, however if you can go ahead and rent for awhile you will more then recoup your deposit back.

eccen – I know of a very good real estate attorney. If you post your email I can email you his phone number. It could not hurt to give him a call.

Disasta – My landlord doesn’t just pop in. He calls when he wants to come by or when I call him and ask him to come by to fix something. He sees a stain on the carpet or the faded spots on the lawn and comments on them. He sees the dead ice plant and comments on it. Of course it was dead when I moved in and I of course took photos. It is just what it is, the price to pay for renting. He doesn’t break any laws at all. We have moved 3 times in 3 years so making suggestions to just move is not really comprehending the situation well.

I rent only for the economic reasons of where I see the market going period. There is ABSOLUTELY no other benefit for myself and family. On top of that it is a constant topic of bickering between my wife and self and I am growing very tired of it. Maybe that is why I have a bit kinder to response to those inquiring about buying. I don’t recommend economically, but I do understand why they are doing it.

Of all the renters here I would like to know how many of them have toddlers and pets. I rent and I am one of them. I am sure there are some others. Yet I believe those who shout loudest about how great it is to rent don’t fall into that category. They maybe have kids that are at least a little older then toddler age and it would surprise me if they had a few dogs/cats as well.

How far east of Del Mar are you thinking? Like Carmel Valley east I suppose? 56 corridor? Or east of Del Mar but like between 5 and El Camino?
