I'm just starting to look for houses here in the San Diego area and the same as everyone else I'm amazed by the prices. Luckily I'll have a 1030 real estate exchange from property in another part of California that I'll be "trading" for so that I won't have to drop a bundle down and be hurting on monthly payments. It kills me the prices of the homes all over San Diego but I'll need to stay here until I finish my education. After I earn my degree I'm playing with the idea of moving to Arizona where I can get a beautiful home and not have to pay the California price tag.
I'm a San Diego native however it's becoming so ridiculous to live here. It seems you work just to pay for the life style your accustom to however no money can be "saved" in the bank due to the ever increasing costs. That's just my opinion.
