ParticipantThis one is still on the market, many others on a previous list have sold already. Looks like some of the homes are still being sold at high prices….

Participant[quote=v-ball player]This is very useful information regarding Montoro. I have a lot more info. to add. We’ve been considering Stonebridge in general. Our friends put in an offer for Montoro and discovered how totally unflexible and non-negotiable they are! They weren’t willing to bend on their price what so ever and insisted that they got full price for all their sales so far. Our friends put in 2 offers (that were low) and the developer wouldn’t even counter her!!! They insisted on the full price. One of the biggest cut corners that my friend discovered was the fact that they are using plastic pipes!!! I think they call it CPVC. When you think about it, all in all, the houses are not that inexpensive when you consider the following: ~5000 yr mello roos, 100-150K landscaping for such large lots, and an enourmous amount of $$$ it would take to upgrade it since the standards that it comes with leave much to be desired (like what was mentioned before in this post). They really need to come down in price! [/quote]
With the water shortage you will need to avoid plants that require a lot of water and get some creative landscaping to make it look good.

Participant[quote=jpinpb]I agree. Granted that SC is new and Canyon Rim and BT are older. You don’t have to worry about maintenance yet. But I expect to see declines in SC. I can’t justify buying there, unless to live for free for a year or so and not pay any mortgage and save money. That’s if you don’t mind hurting your credit for a few years. [/quote]
Why take the chance if you rent a nicer place for much less and wait until the market bottoms?
