Bad time to buy in San Diego California?
I am the process of getting a property but I want to see what others think about buying right now. Here is my thinking on buying right now in San Diego, CA.
1. The Marco Economy debt to income ratio tells me that we are on the verge of hyper-inflation. So even if i'm buying at a high I don't expect it to be the high in 5 years.
2. The local economy in San Diego is less affected from market crashes, in comparison to other counties and cities across the US.
3. If I don't buy I will enter a contract to live somewhere that is a minimum 2200 a month for at least a 6 month lease which will cost 13,200 and 26,400 if I end up getting a year lease.

dont over think it.....I think that if your planning on living in San Diego for the next 5+ years buying will trump renting.
