What’s my Escondido Home Worth? Escondido Market Report for August 2024 Escondido is about 20 miles east of the beaches, and borders San Marcos and Fallbrook in North San Diego County. It’s important that buyers and sellers in the Escondido housing market have up-to-date information about the local market conditions (Read More: Real Estate Is Local…But HOW Local?) so they can make informed buying and selling decisions about Escondido homes for sale.

Escondido Real Estate Prices Lure Buyers Not Newspapers

By Rich Johnson

(Real Living Lifestyles Real Estate)

Here in North County, especially in the inland corridors of communities like Escondido, buyers are resurfacing in large numbers. The reasons are simple…prices have declined significantly and interest rates are really low, and it adds up to more buying power for those in the market for a new home or investment property. You would think the opposite if all you did was read the newspapers. Today I got up and read the headline in the business section of the local Sunday paper, headline reading “Real Estate Crisis About To Get Worse”. The story went on and on about how the number of foreclosures are expected to rise and continue to rise throughout 2008. The story continued on two additional pages and the secondary headline on the next page read “Crisis” continued from page one. The author t... 05/25/2008

Another Neighborhood Garage Sale In Brookside?

By Rich Johnson

(Real Living Lifestyles Real Estate)

Gee whiz…we’re having another community garage sale here in Brookside. Excuse me if I don’t seem too excited, it’s just that this has been going on twice a year each of the four years I’ve lived here. The first year we did this in Brookside, I thought it was a great idea (even though the founder and coordinator of this event is another local REALTOR team), but as the years have gone by and we are now on garage sale #9, I’m thinking this isn’t the greatest thing for our neighborhood. You see, Brookside is a relatively small gated community of about 260 homes in North Escondido. When I bought my house here in 2003, brand new and all mine to put my personal stamp on, I was incredibly happy that we had the gates…not just anyone could enter our beautiful oasis. It isn’t because I’m jealous ... 04/30/2008
