It’s amazing! Love it! Expensive but it’s gorgeous 🎉❤ I’ll pay more food is boring pizza sushi or tacos seems to be all that there is lol but good Italian food. If you want a big house for affordable price not going to happen get real! If you’re single with no kids it’s paradise!

Absolutely horrible. I came to see Leucadia not a couple of yahoos running.

I think San Diego priced will crash. Even if you have the money, it’s still a terrible deal. With the prices, property taxes, repair costs, and utilities. it’s a terrible deal, even for investors who can pay with cash. The return just isn’t there relative to rents a cash flows. Maybe prices don’t “crash”, but prices will be Atleast soft for a long long time maybe even decades while prices of everything else come up to parody.

Oceanside is the best place I have ever lived. I commute to LA twice a month and it isn’t bad. Super quiet and clean beach town. Some homeless but it has been getting better.

Horton Plaza officially opened on Friday August 9,1985.🇺🇸

half this video is saying what 1 million cant get you...

I think Texas will fight you over saying San Diego has better Mexican food

I spent most of my childhood in SD up until early 90s. I haven’t been back but once since but am considering a job that would take me back. We mostly lived in North Park. I went to school in Claremont. However, also lived in Golden Hill and really liked it. Beautiful historical homes. I didn’t hear you mention it so maybe it has changed. I don’t want to only go by my memories when considering at neighborhoods. Is the La Jolla Playhouse still open?

theyre so expensive for a very old, tiny condo conversions that I read can be poor in structure, water proofing etc. Where are true condos/townhomes near Keary Mesa ?

What about putting a tiny home on the land instead?

Currently renting in Del Mar. we had a house in Encinitas in the 2005-2012 time period. I wish we could have kept it.

Love Encinitas. Beautiful city. Oceanside imho is really not comparable to encinitas or most of carlsbad. From safety to modern businesses etc and culture. Both cbad and enci are very high end

Also our condo complex is largely families and retired people. Good quiet mix. Our retired neighbors down stairs do air b&b their place. But they bring in mostly respectful short term renters. But no matter where you live there is always a risk of bad neighbor or renters. Detached units in older nicer neighborhoods are going to get crazy.

Have had a condo in north SD for 6 years now. Like everything else value has gone up 40%. Homes went up the same in our area. All new builds here are basically fancy condos now. Fire risk is similar to most of SD not being on a canyon. HOA goes up, but mostly with the cost to maintain the structure. My HOA cost has been a fair trade so far to avoid paying for a new roof or maintaining the exterior. Most people cant afford anything here bigger than a condo. So there are always buyers and potential renters. Per sqft, single family homes are worth more. And its possible new builds are going to harm condo values more than single family homes since having a yard or larger plot is becoming more rare.

Yeah, but why would anybody live East of the I5? I have talked to people from out there East San Diego and they tell me insane things like it is 105 outside. Is the lower prices really worth a life of misery out in El Cajon, or whatever it is that is on the other side of the I5? It scares me to go East of the I5. I hear it is dangerous over there, it's hot, they have few bike paths. You really just about have to own a car if you are going to get around out there in the East. All seriousness, before buying near the beach you should definitely rent. Me I like the fog so that is a bonus. I do not own a car, and seldom rent a car so traffic is not an issue for me. Near the beach a car is really not a necessity, but an extravagant luxury. I never go to Costco, Walmart, Target, or to a mall to go shopping, so I don't understand the desire to be near one of those type of stores. I guess, I am seduced by the beach life and all of that hustle bustle that the rest of the world seems intent on wasting their lives pursuing seems really strange. I did it myself for a while, I bought a house in Mira Mesa, and had the whole yard and suburb thing going on, but what a waste of time. Back then we had a garage and it just collected junk. It does not make sense to spend all of your life working hard just to buy a bunch of junk that you are going to have to later haul to the landfill. Better to live in a tiny apartment in a place that is fun to live.

Rates are not a problem, house price are. San Diego is no sense, I make 400k/year but I prefer to pay 4k in rent than pay 8k in morgage, tax, hoa for the same property. Even better, I don't have concerns on maintnance, microwave is broken, I call the landlord, house needs paiting, same... I have 6 doors in middlewest that almost pays for my rent here... Next year I will be 100% covered. I can buy a house with my current salary, but I don't want to commit 8k/mo for 30 years... that is NUTS! I'm monitoring inventory of single famuly houses under 850k in north SD. Last year as 12, today is 41!! Inventory is rising FAST

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

La Jolla is so expensive and so good lol

Hi I'm located in SD too! Same concern lol.. I'm planning to buy my first property in three years and have been saving up, but this program is gonna be long gone before that happens :(

San Diego turned into where only the rich buy houses here now. It used to be affordable.

Tsunami, earthquakes, wild fires 🔥 can you get home owners insurance?

First question Dan, how much $$$$$$??????

Interested in what pricing going to be lol

Mira Vista by Toll Brothers in Bay Park bordering Clairemont.

It would be nice if you toured the Amplitude Shea Homes in San Marcos when you can! Keep up the great content!

Thank you.

I’ve lived in downtown Oceanside by the pier for years and loved it! I lived in Carlsbad for a month or two and that situation was mediocre, though Carlsbad is great. I have lived in Encinitas for the last 7 years and it too is superb. Personally, I loved Oceanside the most by far, there is always some action going on, the surf is better, sometimes there are huge concerts right by the pier, the restaurants are better and more cost efficient, Oside is by far the best bang for the buck. Encinitas has the nicest beaches for walking; I have walked from Moonlight beach to dog beach in Del Mar, but it is a wide open beach from Cardiff to Del Mar. Carlsbad has 2 massive malls, Legoland, much larger and nicer hotels, significantly more business infrastructure. I think Carslbad is superior for business and resort like amenities and theme parks. I find Encinitas to be boring, especially compared to Oceanside and Carlsbad which have far more activities. Encinitas is safe and peaceful. Carlsbad is a lot louder with way more tourism and business. Oceanside has a huge military presence, but it also attracts a lot more of the inland (Temecula area) crowd because it;s the easiest beach to get to for those folks. Ah, cost of living…In all cases I’ve been lucky to find thrifty deals most people don’t. Oside 2013-2017 = $1650 for a 3/1 (it was a steal then, too and most places were much more $, that house would easily be double that today). Carlsbad October ‘18 = $900 for a room. Encinitas ‘19-‘21 = $750 private room/private bath (yeah, it was like half the average price then). Encinitas ‘21-now: $1,000 private room/shared bath (also well below average).. point is, deals are out there if you look hard enough. What I get annoyed by are the people trying to get $3,000 for a 600 sq ft studio in Escondido or Fallbrook; do not pay that much or every landlord will think they can charge it. Ah yeah, and I just had two roommates move into a massive 2/2 in Encinitas for $3,000 - that’s also a reasonable deal for Encinitas. Ownership costs triple rent, like don’t bother if you’re not making $300k+ annually, unless you’re okay with a condo or mobile home, and those usually have crazy high HOAs and/or space rent too.

Was hoping you would mention what cities, neighborhoods have HOA. I heard 80% of San Marcos is HOA, and we're trying t stay away from HOA (Home Owner's Asso)

California is hell.

Not the same place I grew up in back in the 60’s And 70’s.

Take ypur $1,000,000 and cross the border to Tijuana on the Mexican side....you can buy a mansion....but then you have to deal with the Mexican thieves and cartels....

with your $1M, you will enjoy a brand new big home in Summerlin Las Vegas which is one of the best to live in Vegas.

You spelt La jolla wrong

you didn't show the actual area

Hi you not talking about restriction and high HOA fees!!!! even harassment by HOA

Encinitas & Carlsbad provide far more attractive living options, compared to the greater San Deigo area. Even certain neighborhoods in Oceanside are very nice. I've lived all over San Diego over the last dozen years, & my favorite communities are by far Encinitas, Carlsbad, Cardiff, & Del Mar.

alpine?!! so if you want to live in san diego because of the weather, the ocean and being near lots of culture and populated areas and youbwant a decentvsize home... don't live in san diego or anywhere near it. livein alpine. justva quick 1 hour drive to downtown.

Buying a house in SD makes no sense at all. You can rent a nice bigger place here for half of the price of the mortgage.

Hi I'm looking to buy what can I get under a million 1 bedroom or a Studio????

the problem with condos the HOA and restrictions and accountability. Sometimes money is gone

Naturally, this dude fails to mention the unstable costs of HoAs, which will be run by any of your neighbors. Nobody factors in the HOA that you have NO guarantee that you will get your money back on. if your $500 monthly hoa fee, ¡which can go up at any time! , over 10 years, that is $60k + Property tax. If you sell it for $100k more, not guaranteed (!) that means you only made $40k in profit. All theae newer construction get together with the cities and your hoa can end up paying for costs the city should be paying for

Really? Even with flood/fire risk relative to the property insurance most mortgages require? It seems condo’s, even one bedrooms, near military bases and college campuses are THE best investment choice. Is it worth looking into the real estate business as a whole vs listening to a real estate agent? This includes not only environmental risk but also faults, as San Diego has been found to have the same faults as Northridge -meaning condos and homes built atop garages NEED retrofitting. It also means UTC, San Marcos, Camp Peddleton (not in moderate+ fire risk). Lastly, the hydrocloric sulfide and sewage in Otay Mesa and Chula Vista is VERY toxic- which is why their politicians has been pleading for federal emergency $ for YEARS, I’m questioning if this “advice” is knowledge and responsible. 💯

Dude …I grew up on Point Dume Malibu when it was affordable . First your “walk ability , 5-10 min duve 15 min drive to the beach “ impacting you is STUPID and wrong . I live in Laguna Woods Ca ..a quick 10 min DIVE from Laguna beach …if you GAVE me a house on PCH in Laguna I’d prefer where I live NOW . Your video is FILLED with non professional generalizations which for a pro realtor provides your audience ZERO numbers …then you just reference ZILLOW . You don’t even FUCKING show videos of the area , it’s just YOU talking to the camera .WTF😂

That drone pilot is getting a letter from the FAA 😨

I bought a condo in Carmel Valley in 2002, it has since tripled in value so I consider it a great investment

Another point about condos and townhomes: Mortgage lenders have a lending threshold WRT percent of the homes that are rentals. If the percentage of homes in the community that are rentals exceeds some threshold, mortgage companies won't lend to buyers. I'm a landlord, and that was stated in a course took. And my son purchased a condo to occupy, and he had to provide that info to the lender.

Encinitas, Carlsbad is considered a rich, affluent area. You can get a much more inexpensive home further east of the beach and it's only a twenty minute drive and closer to Snapdragon and downtown. An average home in SD is $899K for a tiny old house 3/2. You need to have two jobs of $150K yearly to live in a house. I bought my condo, yes tiny 670 sq ft for $207K 8 years ago, next door sold for $450K for the exact same model at the beginning of the year. If you're wealthy, no problem, you can move to SD. 😂

Everyone is a “badass” here - especially on the road- they’ll get into an accident over their ego behind the wheel… AVOID this trash city

Carlsbad sucks now. Used to be a little surf town with small houses that everyone could afford. They tore down most of the cottages near beach and built monstrosities and forced all the locals out. Now its only stuck up rich people all over.
