Waves are cresting at 18 to 20 feet and big rains are anticipated--along with heavy snowfall in local mountains. It will be the best of both worlds for surfers and skiers:-) Jennifer:

We lived downtown and our apartment overlooked the bay, downtown, and we had a great view of Coronado. If we had stuck around, the ballpark would also have been part of the view. Sigh...and I could use the winter weather there just about now.

Prices for San Diego real estate are soft, and we are starting to see multiple offers on well-priced San Diego County homes. If you would like to search a local San Diego MLS site, just go to: http://www.SanDiegoPreviews.com Best wishes, Roberta Rebecca:

Thankfully, for new San Diego taxpayers, those prices have been dropping. Perhaps you should consider a move back to the San Diego Paradise? Jennifer:

I have been following all market news on San Diego for sometime. In fact, I have already started my search online. As I believe that before going for any deal, one should look for all available options present in the market. I have used the resortscape.com ( http://www.resortscape.com/default.aspx?ct=r&q=&utm_medium=linktous&utm_source=PT ) to do my search and it was really good using the search portal.

Is the comparison you mention just a percentage of affordability or are they using actually dollars amounts to compare the different cities? You know Wisconsin is taxing properties additional if they have any kind of view, which I believe is ridiculous. Does San Diego tax for climate? :) Well we moved from San Diego eight years ago because we couldn’t afford to buy a home, and there was no way we were moving to Otay to afford one.
