SAN DIEGO (Feb. 4, 2013) – After starting development on 98 new homes in November, San Diego master-planned community Del Sur is reporting an uptick in sales. November-to-date, 50 new families have purchased a home at the community located in the coastal hills above Rancho Santa Fe.

“Traditionally, home shoppers nationwide will hold off near the holidays and resume their search for a new home in February,” said Bill Ostrem, president and CEO of Black Mountain Ranch LLC, developer of Del Sur. “But that isn’t the case this year. With nationwide inventory at its lowest point since 2007, the response from shoppers at Del Sur has been to buy now and buy new.”
Contributing to the community’s recent success is California West Communities. In November, the builder started development on 42 new homes at Valencia at Del Sur. To date, they’ve released and sold 21 of these homes, reaching the 50-percent-sold-out mark in less than three months.
Robert Thorne, CEO of California West Communities, feels the energy.
“For the first time in two years, we’ve been selling out of phase releases as soon as pricing is released,” Thorne said. “Serious homebuyers are joining the interest lists, prequalifying and prepared to purchase their select home sites as soon as they are available. Great quality product, incomparable value and a Del Sur address make these homes extremely attractive to those ready to buy now.”
Valencia offers three floor plans ranging from 2,996 to 3,495 square feet with up to six bedrooms and five baths. The detached homes feature gourmet kitchens and great rooms, Del Sur Room outdoor living spaces, generously sized second-floor bonus rooms and more. Homes are priced from the mid $700,000s.
Other quickly selling communities at Del Sur include Standard Pacific Homes’ detached homes at Carleton and Presidio priced from the high $700,000s; Shea Homes’ town homes at Mandolin priced from the mid $400,000s; and semi-custom homes at Gables Crossing at Del Sur by McCullough Design Development.
