San Diego is one of those towns where most people think that they can't afford a condo. Growing up in Philadelphia, east coasters think living in San Diego is an unattainable Soutern California paradise. Frankly for awhile they were right. Prices were high and only getting higher. During the San Diego condo boom, thousands of new units went up and now there is somewhat of a glut of condos. This has made builders drastically drop their prices in some areas making some amazing deals out there and making the market affordable to all potential buyers. 2 years ago, you could not find a 2 bedroom San Diego condo for under $500,000. Now even 5 minutes down the street from my house you can pick up some nice 2 bedroom condo conversions or some slightly older condos for the high $200,000's.
The fantasy of living in this Southern California wonder land is finally attainable for most people. I don't think there is anywhere in the world I would rather live. The weather is amazing all year round and the people are incredible. If you are looking for some more affordable San Diego condos, you may want to check out areas such as North Park, Hillcrest, and southern San Diego in Chula Vista. They are some beautiful affordable single family homes down in Chula Vista.
As a San Diego resident now, I am heading down to the Padres game tonight where it is military night. The ballpark downtown is one of the best in the country and I would encourage people to make it out to a game if they make it to town.
