This was listed for $1,438,000 at the beginning of March, but no takers. They lowered the price to $1,398,000 after two weeks, and then moved down to $1,349,000 a week later (which usually means they weren't getting any traffic, let alone offers). By the end of May,...
Our listing on Aviara Drive closed escrow yesterday, setting a new record for highest price ever in Aviara (an area of 2,025 homes in SW Carlsbad). It was one of those sales that needed everything to go right, because we were thrown a real knuckleball right in the...
