Recent statistics show an increase in housing prices in North County (San Marcos) and through-out San Diego. The “great deals” once available have evaporated as the housing market finds its way back to normalcy. There are a lot of people out there looking to buy houses and a lack of available homes to buy is the common denominator, and that pushes the prices up. The increase in the number of prospective buyers started in February and is continuing to grow. Included in the search for a home are first time home buyers, young couples once priced out of the market, relocation families, retired couples and even some investors.
Home builders in Southern California, such as Fieldstone Homes, have restarted dormant projects, such as Rancho Santalina Homes to relieve the pressure. The demand of the market is being met. This is exciting and great for the economy to see construction going on again and people at work!
With housing prices still greatly reasonable and mortgage rates low, it’s a super time to find your dream home this summer! Read more about San Marcos Mortgage rates or articles.
Hurry before yours is gone!

San Marcos, CA – Jewel of North County
I don’t know of a more central location in North San Diego that has as much to offer as San Marcos. With a population of about 84,000, San Marcos is quickly becoming known as the educational hub of San Diego North County with its award-winning school district, Palomar Community College and California State University San Marcos. Take a moment to view the schools around Rancho Santalina Homes.
The city is located along Highway 78 that connects Highway 5 by the coast and Highway 15 inland and has an excellent transportation network with the Sprinter commuter rail line and great bus service.
Amenities
It’s known for having some of the best restaurants including Old California Restaurant Row which features a large concentration of restaurants offering a variety of cuisines. San Marcos features several golf courses, notably Lake San Marcos, which itself is a recreational venue.
There is new mixed with old in housing and shopping with quality centers like Creekside Marketplace, Nordahl Center, Grand Plaza and plans for thoughtful future developments like the San Marcos Downtown Creek District.
The city has two big festivals a year, The Grand Spring Festival in April and The Grand Fall Festival in October. Land prices are still lower compared to other North San Diego County cities. It’s hard to beat the mild, year-round climate with an average summer temperature around 72 degrees.
Check out San Marcos……you will love it!

Rancho Santalina is a beautiful New Home Community opening for sale this month. This is great news for the community, the area and the current home owners that live there now.
