ParticipantI’ve always said that kids cost alot less than I expected. But they take more time than I expected, also. Giving them time is a better investment, methinks.
Participant[quote=sdrealtor]This one is for mi compadre sdddude. In 92117 Clairemont (not Bay Ho or Bay Park) there are 15 SFR’s on the market under $500K. Under $400K is virtually non-existant and to find it you are near the corner of Clairemont and Clairemont Mesa which locals will recognize as the Crown Jewel of CM;)[/quote]
I’m looking for a question in there and don’t see it so I get to ramble.
Definitely the housing stock in 92117 between 400K and 500K is poor compared to what it was even a year ago. The redfin chart is pretty interesting. Sold prices following listing prices up quite clearly, though the discrepancy is still really big.
92117 = Clairemont zip code. Contains nicer stuff in Bay Ho and Bay Park as well as the crappy 1-car-garage houses in the “Crown Jewel” area.
92111 = Linda Vista zip code. Has Clairemont and Linda Vista ‘hoods.
Real-estate people always say 92111 is definitely less desireable than 92117, even for comparable homes. Stupid, I agree, but that’s the deal. So, Mt. Streets south of Balboa are “Clairemont” if you are selling and “Linda Vista” if you are buying.
Redfin shows 49 homes for sale in 92117. In 2004 I was showing my parents around. There were 11 SFRs for sale in the whole zip code.
I prefer Clairemont to MM because of its proximity to the beach, La Jolla, downtown, Fashion Valley and freeway access from all sides. Dealing with Mira Mesa or Miramar as the only corridors with the military base to the south and the canyon to the north blocking access in either direction is very confining to me. I would guess Clairemont is a little cooler, too. We get good breeze from the canyons. I like the 50’s housing stock, too – fir timber, you know.
Participant[quote=bearishgurl]sdduuuude, I’m wondering why it is you have stated you want to move (to CV?) if Clairemont is your “hometown.” Do I have this correct?? Why not try to score a canyon rim property in the coming months (if you don’t already own one) and call it a day? If you already own there and can’t get the price you want from your current home, consider renting it out. As you’re probably aware, there is a great demand for rental homes in Clairemont.[/quote]
That is exactly the plan, bg. Rent out our current canyon home and move to CV. Let the kids live in it during college, if we can afford to let them live there rent-free.
Tucson is my hometown 🙂
Participant[quote=ocrenter]why can’t you see the parallel with smoking and alcohol, where we do not ban the items but we at least put in some breaks in the system and at least block advertisement aimed at kids.[/quote]
I do see those parallels. I don’t really like those laws either. I believe in Darwin.
Enforcing things like this are expensive, time-consuming, not effective, and not our right.
For me, the effectiveness, or effects of something like this are not even up for discussion – We all have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Is dictating the sugar intake of individuals not a clear violation of these rights,m regardless of the intent or outcome ?
Participant[quote=ocrenter]the problem is a bit more complex than simply personal choice.
if this problem is simply personal choice, then why are 2/3 of all Americans are making the wrong choices now, vs 1/3 making the wrong choices 30 years ago?
[/quote]Doesn’t really matter if personal choice works or not. It’s personal choice. The most important freedom to protect. If the personal choices of others don’t work for you, there’s nothing you can rightfully do about it.
[quote=ocrenter]
the problem here is sugar in large quantities can be highly addictive. [/quote]
Food is addictive. Lets ban it.
Same reasoning.ParticipantBecause making something illegal is always the answer.
Hopefully the supreme court will stop this one.
ParticipantSuggest you go to a free seminar. Will/trust lawyers often put them on as sales tools but I learned a ton from the one I went to. We eventually used them to do the job. Cost was about $1300 and I was happy to pay it because I put pretty much no time into it at all.
May 18, 2012 at 11:40 AM in reply to: OT: “Act Now: Get $30000 cash back from Bank of America if you short sale before…” #744090ParticipantAs I have said before – the banks and FBs deserve each other. They can do whatever they want as far as I’m concerned, except when the taxpayers are backstopping/bailing them out.
At least this looks like a plan that isn’t sucking from the tax payers, unless I’m missing something, which I’m sure I am.
Participant[quote=flyer]Although most points have been well covered, just thought I’d add my two cents.
Some friends of ours recently started looking for a home in San Diego with similar specs as the OP.
After considering Carmel Valley, locations East of I-15, Santa Fe Valley–near 4S, Del Sur, etc., etc., they decided on Santaluz.
As many here have mentioned, HOA and MR are high, but they wanted a larger lot, West of I-15, but East of the “Sun-Line,” (that’s why we love living in Rancho Santa Fe), so you might want to at least check out that option as well.
One resource you might consider to get a feel for what’s available and pricing in this general area, is sdlookup.com. Santaluz is in the 92127 zip code, and you can also check out other zip codes in which you might be interested.
We’ve lived many places in the world, but San Diego has always been “home.” I know you and your family will enjoy living here–Welcome![/quote]
Rancho Santa Fe isn’t a bad idea.
There is also a neighborhood east of I-5, North of Via De La Valle, South of Lomas Santa Fe and west of El Camino Real that is really neat. $1.1M might be able to land the OP something pretty cool in there near Sun Valley Road.
Somewhere on bubbleinfo.com, Jim posted a map of the climate zones in San Diego county. Was pretty interesting. Might be useful.

Better schools and a family christian atmosphere.[/quote]
Quite curious to know what makes you think moscin wants a christian atmosphere. That sounds positively awful to me, and a lot of people share my view. I’m curious why you assume moscin is not one of them.[/quote]
Isn’t it a law that you have to be a Protestant to live in CT ?
