Lack of San Diego Real Estate Inventory in 2017Low inventory has caused the number of home sales in February 2017, which are completed transactions nationwide to drop 3.7% from January 2017. The properties counted in this analysis include single family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops. Although Realtors have been reporting a strong buyer presence wanting to purchase real estate, the problem is the lack of inventory of resale homes for sale. First time homebuyers made up 32% of the total sales in February 2017 compared to 33% in January 2017. All cash sales made up 27% of the real estate transactions in February 2017 and 23% in January 2017.Freddie Mac reports that the average commitment rate for a 30-year, conventional, fixed-rate mortgage is slightly up in February to 4.17 per...

Properties advertised on websites like VRBO (Vacation Rental By Owner) and AirBnB, essentially any rental with less than a 30 day lease, are coming under fire and at the moment, not permitted in San Diego, CA.As a neighbor I can understand the fight against them, I don't want new vacationers in and out of the house or condo next door every week, it changes the dynamic of living in my home. On the other hand, as a Realtor and investor, holy cow! This is bad! There are some properties in San Diego that make no sense from a cash flow perspective, to rent annually or long term leases. But, cash-flow beautifully as short term vacation rentals.  This could take a toll on how investors view San Diego, CA, the effect is yet to be felt as this is a highly contested issue.

Clairemont House Value CheckClairemont is located in Central Coastal San Diego. It’s probably one of the most convenient places to live when you take into account its closeness to the beaches of La Jolla and Pacific Beach and the short drive to Downtown San Diego and Balboa Park. There’s been a lot of new home construction in San Diego County and many of the areas with new homes are a relative long commute to beaches and many of the popular things that San Diego has to do. Recently people have gotten tired of the long commutes back and forth from work to home, sitting in traffic, and are trying to find a home closer to where they work. Clairemont has been one of these areas that many San Diego residents want to move to. There have also been a lot of remodeled or flipped properties in Cl...

Bay Park House Value CheckBay Park is located in Clairemont and is a wonderful Central Coastal San Diego community with a wonderful San Diego beach-like neighborhood feel. Bay Park is in the southwest portion of Clairemont and has a wide variety of homes from original 1950’s single story, to completely remodeled and flipped properties. Bay Park is just east of Pacific Beach, south of Bay Ho, west of Clairemont Mesa West and north of Old Town.Some of the homes in Bay Park have incredible bay, ocean and Downtown San Diego views. Some of the best in San Diego. Because of these incredible views these homes have been increasing in value very nicely. Some of the best renovation real estate that I’ve seen in Clairemont has been in this area due to the exclusivity of these lots. 92110 and 92117...
