I will be retirement eligible in 10 months and I don't have the same worries as my contemporaries, like where I am going to find my next job, what salary I am going to need to maintain my quality of life etc.... because I have a decent portfolio of investments accrued over the years....Message me if you have any more specifics.

However this one had two ground floor additions plus a 700 sq ft second floor master bedroom suite addition and a 2 car garage and it was now 2,600 sq ft.I comped it as a contemporary and came up with $380,000. 

I concur with Dan on the blue collar areas being ideal neighborhoods to start, though I'd add that many parts of urban San Diego (including parts of Southcrest, Encanto, and City Heights) are primarily blue collar as well, though with different cultural norms than the L-areas listed above.
