ParticipantWell I rolled out to yardhouse on Saturday, the place was rocking but it wasn’t the cougar den I was hoping it would be, more of a old 20’s, young 30’s crowd. Changs’s mellowed out by 11 but Yard still had a fight for seats going, I’d guess 200 patrons. I’ll try it midweek for happy hour before deciding, something less of an amatuer night than a Saturday. My wingman pulled some digits but her friend was not my style so we ended up empty handed. The Public House in Old Town is still my favorite, much more mellow and more in my wheelhouse, age wise, but the stemless wineglasses are still a bother.
harry and scarlett, why so glum, the aftermath is a good time. Sure there will be sad stories but the rebirth is a natural part of the cycle and I’m seeing less lowlifes by the day. In fact my neighbors are in the process of stripping their house right now, both sides are leaving this month, thank goodness. We post boom reseters are having a ball and they are my kind of people, happy to greet my new neighbors (currently 4 of 8 houses are half off buyers like myself, soon to be 6). I have yet to see a lowlife move into the hood and each new occupant is an upgrade in demographics. Don’t fear it, welcome it.
The economy locally isn’t a product of people not paying their mortgage, it is because every new arrival or former renter is paying a small percentage of their income for housing, like it should be. Buying and renting costs the same up here, it’s actually quite liberating financially speaking.
Oh and on the SD vs tem/mur economy, the valley’s total population is in excess of 400k, it’s disposable income is higher than any comparable city in S.D. (including carlsbad)
page 8 and 12 is where I found that info, from the 2008 report, well into our little housing crisis.
an excerpt on retail sales
“It was in this position despite having a population (101,057) that is much smaller than the other cities on this list. In relationship to comparable San Diego County cities, Temecula’s performance was strong. Escondido ($2.7 billion) had slightly stronger sales with a much larger population (143,389). Despite having roughly the same population as Temecula, the other San Diego County city’s had weaker total sales: Carlsbad ($2.4 billion), El Cajon ($2.1 billion), San Marcos
($1.4 billion), Vista ($1.2 billion)”This can all be traced to fundamentals, only .79 jobs are needed for the median house, compared to well over 1 job for other areas.
I could go on and on with anectodotal info but the reality is that the new Temeculans are a lot like me, they have jobs, they have money and they have house payments that are a fraction of everyone else’s, just as it should be, Booooyaaa! Welcome to the aftermath, people paying much less than 3 times their annual earnings for a house, it’s so good to be me, I think I’m going to go kiss myself in the mirror and perhaps act inappropriately, narcissism is fun.

ParticipantSD Transplant, you nailed it, that was me. Phil’s is the bomb, I love that place and can be spotted there at least monthly to get my fix. Good eye!
Hodads is another SD eatery I can be spotted in monthly as well.

ParticipantNow you are starting to sound like me. However, despite my predictions that we will never get to the Road Warrior phase, that we may well be in what we will look back as the worst of times, I have a bio suit and weapons and food and water. Not because I like to hedge my bets, which I do, but because if the apocolypse does come, those things will get chicks. Lots of them, so much so that I already have my lines prepared. “I’ve been vaccinated against anthrax, my body fluids are the antidote” is my favorite so far.

ParticipantRen you are right, those are the ones.

It’s a good builder for a national, it’s not what ox wants, it’s not the typical Fallbrook avo ranch but it is an indication of the market there.
Ox, it isn’t just a possibility that prices ooze down the 15, it’s a fact and something that always happens. A few years ago when we were all making predictions the majority agreed with Bugs’ “all things are related” theory. The drops in Murrieta, caused buyers considering temecula to move 10 miles north to save 10-20%, next thing you knew that hurt temec sales and it responded with it’s own drops, then fallbrook esco lose buyers to temec ten miles north and this cycle repeats itself with new waves coming. At some point the whole Temecula Valley is half off and if fallbrook/esco isn’t it soon will be, then san marcos, vista oside, the final wave is carlsbad, poway, rb, carmel valley, etc. They are now experiencing the wave from two years ago up here, it’s anyones guess if the half off everything knockout blow will hit them because government intervention may take hold before they get theirs. But the brook and esco, they are too close the the epicenter, the effects are felt sooner, being felt now, so I would not call bottom in fallbrook or esco at the same on the calendar as carlsbad, they are on opposite ends of the pain trains tracks and the percentage of decline from peak is much higher the further out you get from the center.
