San Diego February 2012 Home Market Trends

San Diego Board of Realtors Has Statistics for February 2012

The general comments and discussion among agent in the past 2 months has been “we are busy and inventory is limited.”  Naturally if you have had  your home for sale for some time and you hear someone say “inventory is limited” you wonder why you don’t have multiple offers.  In general the basic rules always apply; If a home is in a popular neighborhoods, presents well and is priced with the market based on closed sales you should be seeing offers.  Personally what I am experiencing is relocation buyers coming for good jobs with major employers in San Diego and people who are making offers and deciding to purchase rather than lease. The statistics will play themselves over the next few months.  I do not see any radical jumps in pricing but I see many more pending sales in all prices ranges which is a positive sign for recovery.

The Housing Market Reports

I found an interesting article on DSNews about how reports are made about market trends.  As agents we find many times the sites such as Trulia do not have accurate information. In addition some local papers provide inaccurate statistics.  We recently sat down with a title rep who reviewed all the coastal sales and told us how several coastal zip codes are misrepresented in reporting. that is why it is always best to look at a particular neighborhood and prepare closed sales and trends for that particular specific area.

Read Why Lake San Marcos Real Estate is the Best Kept Secret!

I was recently reintroduced to the Lake San Marcos neighborhood. I had a good friend who’s parents needed to sell a condo there and needed a situation that would afford them more care.  I researched what was available in the area and found the Chateau’s of  Lake San Marcos to be a unique concept in Independent Adult condo ownership.

They are owned fee simple and yet provide services through their HOA fees for adult living.  The setting for them is absolutely gorgeous!  They are surrounded by lovely gardens and walking paths.  There are 137 1 and 2 bedroom condos in several different buildings all equipped with elevators. Some have lovely views and the prices are based upon the location, amenities and square footage. The condos currently range in price from $110,000-200,000. I was very fortunate to sell my clients a 2 bedroom that was completely furnished. It was a 2 bedroom with a lovely balcony in a quiet location and tastefully furnished in good condition.  The services which are avialable include a dining room that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner or room service.  There is housekeeping, linen service, transportation, activities, fitness, a lovely pool for aquatic classes and more activities.  The HOA fee varies with the square footage and number of residents in the condo.  My clients purchased a 962 sq ft 2 bedroom model and their fees were $1636 for 1 resident and $2186 for 2 residents.  There is also a State Licensed Assisted Living Facility within the Chateau community that provides 24 hour care.
