SkyRanchOwner
ParticipantScarlett,
That’s a tough decision.
The HOA up here is high at $342, but there is no Mello Roos. HOA is not tax deductible, yet Mello Roos is only deductible in certain instances.
http://www.ftb.ca.gov/individuals/faq/net/909.shtmlThe private schools can be around $200-$400/month depending on which school and Christian vs. Catholic. You would have to look around.
Sky Ranch Crestview would be in your price range. They currently have 3 homes left in the current phase, ranging from $526k – $561k.
http://lennar.com/New-Homes/California/San-Diego/Crestview-At-Sky-RanchThey range in square footage from 2884 to 3270. All have 3 car garages.
I’ve heard of kids going to Carlton Oaks Elementary public school and really liking it.

ParticipantWe looked at the newer Chula Vista homes, but because of the commute time to Sorrento Valley, approx. $5 toll road for the 125, we chose to buy in Sky Ranch in Santee.
They are opening the 52 to connect right below the mountain, so the commute to Sorrento Valley will be about 30 minutes. With no traffic or traffic that is moving, I’ve made it in about 25-30 minutes from Sky Ranch.
Here is a link.
http://www.skyranchliving.com/For schooling, the private schools around the area would be best, but there are some decent public schools.
Here is a thread discussing the area:

ParticipantI was just trying to give everyone my opinion as an owner up here in Sky Ranch. I had to do a lot of research before we bought, so I’m just sharing what I found out about Santee in the process. Everyone else must make their own informed decision. I’m just trying to help.
Opinions are a dime a dozen, right?!
LOL on the 10-15 mintues to La Jolla! I didn’t realize it was an inside joke. No way could you make it to La Jolla in 10-15 minutes unless you were driving super fast. Here is an analysis, not based on opinion:
According to Google maps it’s 20.5 miles, just about all Freeway except on leaving Sky Ranch and entering La Jolla Shores.
At 60 mph, on avg, that’s about 30 minutes
At 70 mph, on avg, that’s about 18 minutes
At 80 mph, on avg, that’s about 15 minutes
At 100 mph, on avg, with Radar, that’s about 12 minutes!!!!
If you’re daring, you could drive 200 mph and get there in about 6 minutes.
:-pSo, for anyone saying you can’t get there in 10-15 minutes, it all depends on how fast you drive. No traffic and all green lights, mostly 52 freeway, and at 100 mph, on avg, yes you could! 12 minutes to be exact.
