ParticipantSeems like a doing a simple study in other areas similar to the counts done in Carlsbad would be a good, inexpensive start. WHat is the count in PB, CV, CLMT, the other CV, etc ? This will at tell you if it is a red herring or not. Looking at pet statisics may be interesting, too.

Participant[quote=Scarlett]Sure I understand this advice, but…
If I’d move to another rental, it’d be in a place with short commute and good public schools – to be worth (for me) the move without having bought. The obvious choice for us is those La Jolla townhomes I mentioned …
2nd choice – Carmel valley townhomes. newer. higher MRs and HOAs. not sure I like the community …

I get it. I think your strategy is quite sound. It isn’t like you are moving to another city and you can easily evaluate homes with a short drive from your current house, or on the way home from work, or even at lunch.
I think I remember in your last thread I mentioned Tierrasanta and you had some objections to it. I don’t love the home choices there but I have always liked the general area. It’s quite an easy drive into La Jolla. You’ll barely notice the extra 5 min over CLMT.
By the way, I gather that a house of our square footage on a lot this size in CV would cost roughly $300K more than this one in CLMT and it would need updating.

ParticipantThere is always the “try before you buy” option: Rent in Clairemont for a year. Get to know the area. Learn the market. Keep an eye out for the right house.
At the same time, you shorten your commute and maybe save some money to aim for UC instead of Clairemont.
I’d say prices will be flat to down a bit in a year, too.

ParticipantI always forget about Stonehaven. It is pleasant there, for sure. I’m not fond of the houses / yards and I suspect there are HOA as well.
