Homes in Rancho Bernardo,Ca. 92128

Rancho Bernardo is a beautifully master planned community offering an enticing mix of idyllic weather, championship golf courses, world class restaurants, businesses, residential areas, senior communities and more. Not only does Rancho Bernardo have some of the best schools (Poway Unified School District) and it is also known for being one of California’s safest communities. It’s easy to see why Rancho Bernardo has become one of the most desirable spots in the country. Housing development started in 1961 when The Daley’s who were cattle ranchers sold their land to WR Hawn and Harry L. Sommers who in turn established AVCO Development. Rancho Berardo is within the City of San Diego and is located approximately 25 minutes to the San Diego airport and 20 minutes to the beaches of Del Mar. It encompasses @7000acres and has a population of 45,000.
Rancho Bernardo is broker into 2 zip codes, 92128 and 92127. The 92128 zip code represents east of I-15 and 92127 represents the areas west of I-15. As far as housing, the senior areas (55+ years are all on 92128) as well as other established neighborhoods. You find the newer neighborhoods on 92127 as well as some of the original neighborhoods such as Westwood. $S Ranch, Del Sur and Santaluz are all 92127 but are not considered “Rancho Bernardo.” I have seperate pages and blogs on those communities.
Here are some charts taken from RB Inn depicting the weather averages:

Out of 64 closed sales year to date within the gates of Santaluz, 23 were noted in the MLS as distressed sales. Distressed sales are short sales or bank owned REO). The distressed sales drag down values but are not always the best values due to location and condition. The buyer is purchasing “as is” and may have to make improvements. The short sales require long escrow periods. I know of several short sales where lenders refused offers and yet in the final process and after continued market periods ended up accepting even lower offers. This can be frustrating to both buyers and sellers.
Santaluz Lowest Priced Home Closed in 2011
The lowest price home to close in 2011 was a Spanish Bungalow, Plan 1 single story, 2970 sq ft on 14649 Caminito Lazanja. This was a lovely home that was purchased in 2005 for $1,150,000. It was listed for $850,000 in 2010, lowered to $695-750,000 range and finally closed as a short sale at $618,000. This home was in escrow a few times while awaiting a lenders approval for a short sale. This is a prime example of never knowing what a lender will accept for a sale and when they will accept it. This is why many buyers will make multiple offers on homes and why they “walk” because they may take an accepted offer on another home they have a contract on. If you want more information on purchasing or selling short sales we are always available to guide you in the process.
Factors Affecting Value in Santaluz Homes
Location, location, location is always a huge factor in value. The locations in Santaluz that are least desirable have road noise (Camino Del Sur is only getting busier with increased traffic noise), back to other homes with little privacy as far as angle and landscaping, are in the direct path of golf balls (evidence is the multiple golf balls) and yard size. Naturally the homes that are most desirable have views, lovely backyards with space for entertaining and money spent on hardscape, well planned floor plans (customs can be too ”unique”) and homes that are well maintained with desirable features.
Closings for Santaluz Production Homes in 2011 uder 5000 sqft
The production homes are all the homes that are not “custom.” The total number of production homes are 71 Davidson, 65 Warmington (Belsera), 64 Spanish Bungalow, 63 Garden Homes, 55 Posadas, 50 Hacienda Sur,80 Sentinels and 80 casitas. The average from this list below is a closed sale of $998,636 for 4br/4ba at $291.27 sqft. In determining value we always separate the distressed sales from the o sales and then consider all factors in pricing a home. I will be writing a blog on what Santaluz Home sellers need to do to sell in 2012..stay tuned!

Rancho Bernardo 92128 Home Sales Year to Date 2011
Rancho Bernardo East Home Sale Trends
Rancho Bernardo 92128 includes some senior areas; Oaks North and 7 Oaks where many single family homes sell under $500,000 due to their size and age. There is no new construction in this zip code therefore no competition with new home builders. Many of the homes in this area are older and need updating which buyers factor into their decision on offer price and also whether they want to take on the burden of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms. The homes that have been updated sell quickly and at higher prices.
Please see my other blogs on Market Trends!
If you would like an opinion of value on your property please contact us! The first of the year is always a good time to market properties. People who are relocating start looking at this time with hopes of closing an escrow early in the spring.

Rancho Bernardo Safety Tips for Fall Fire Prevention
Rancho Bernardo Residents Pass 4th Year Anniversary of Witch Fire

In October 2007 Rancho Bernardo residents lost 365 homes due to the Witch fire. Poway was affected with the loss of 90 homes and in 2003 Scripps Ranch experienced the loss of 312 homes in the Cedar fire. I had a client who lost everything in the Scripps fire. Thankfully I had taken pictures of their home which were helpful when they dealt with their insurance company in negotiating replacement of their home. It is a reminder at this time of year throughout San Diego that we have to be watchful and prepared as it is not “if” a fire will again sweep through our canyons but “when.” The Santa Ana winds fuel the fires and embers travel up to 3 miles ahead of the fire igniting grasses. The importance of clearing at least 100 feet around structures cannot be over stressed.

Santaluz Residents Forming Interest Groups for Disaster Preparation
Some of our communities have been planned to be “stay in place” areas. The landscaping has been regulated to deter the rapid spread of fire and lessen the chance for residents to be evacuated. Santaluz residents have now formed resident interest groups to plan for major disasters including fires. Communication amoung residents is of vital importance. Some common guidelines in case of fire are the following:

- Shut off gas at the meter. Only a qualified professional can safely turn the gas back on
- Seal attic and ground vents with pre-cut plywood or commercial seal
- Turn off propane tanks
- Place combustible patio furniture inside
- Take down hanging plants and move them away from the house
- Connect garden hose to outside taps. Place lawn sprinklers on the roof and near above ground fuel tanks. Wet the roof
- Wet or remove shrubs within 15 feet of your residence
- Gather fire tools such as a rake, axe, handsaw or chainsaws, bucket and shovel
- Back your cars into the garage or park it in an open space facing the direction of escape. Shut the doors and roll up the windows. Leave the key in the ignition and the car doors unlocked. Close garage windows and doors but leave them unlocked. Disconnect automatic garage doors.
- Open fireplace damper, and close fireplace screen.
- Close windows, vents, doors, blinds or other non combustible window coverings and heavy drapes. Remove flammable drapes and curtains.
- Move flammable furniture into the center of the residence away from windows and sliding glass doors.
- Close all interior doors and windows to prevent drafts
- Place valuables that will not be damaged by water in a pool or pond.
- Open your wooden gate and leave it open, so the fire cannot run along your fence to your home.
This time of year take the time to make sure your fire alarms are in working order..replace batteries. Place fire extinguishers in various locations as a general fire safety measure. Make sure your landscaping is under control with extra vegetation removed from your property and away from your home. Discuss your “escape” plan with your family so in the event of a fire when sometimes minutes count you are together in youir plan if evacuation is needed. This should also a plan for pets. It is a good idea to place notices at your homes entry points that state if you have animals in your homes. The thought of my Max (black lab) being in my home if a fire occurred while I was away would break my heart. At least if someone came to the home a notice might insure he was removed.

Excellent Vacation Rental Investment
Welcome To Bernardo Heights Showplace Patio Home!
I have a great property in Rancho Bernardo, 92128 in the Bernardo Heights area that would make an ideal vacation rental! I just checked on Vacation Rentals by Owner and was amazed at what owners are getting for vacation rentals. A 1200-1300 sqft 2 bedroom condo is listed for monthly rents at $2400-$2700. That;s allot of income. Unfurnished they are $1600-$1800. Rents have gone through the roof! So if you think you might want to invest in some depreciated real estate getting great prices and low interest rates think about purchasing some good rental income real estate. Better yet, buy it, live in it so you can get financing as a personal residence and then consider a world cruise with your place paying for it! This is also an ideal first time buyers nest. This could be your starting point and help you get into house #2 with rental income!
Here’s a gem 12555 CalleTamega #111 in Las Brisas, 92128..by the way this offers 2 Community Centers!!!
We're sorry, but we couldn't find MLS # 110044066 in our database. This property may be a new listing or possibly taken off the market. Please check back again.
