    Eastwood versus Stonegate

    Being so close to each other but zoned for different schools, which among the two is better?  Eastwood new homes versus Stonegate relatively old homes?  After all, new is a relative term...in 5 years from now, EW is also going not to get old. Why is Stonegate so hot?  Will EW join the same league?

    Back out from purchase agreement

    Makes sense...would have been better if they had the earnest deposit a bit less...but it is what it is...our fault to have waited so long that the market is so volatile now.. Just worried with the number of homes coming up in five point community and how the house market is getting flooded with...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Wow...that is a lot of info, thanks :) How would San Mateo in Stonegate compare with Petaluma in EW 5 years from now?  5 year old home versus 10 year old home with comparable floor plan...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    I understand why I need to pay 850K for a detached condo (without driveway)....but dont understand why someone would pay 1 million in a couple of years for the same?  Is inflation expected to go up so much? How would San Mateo in Stonegate compare with Petaluma in EW 5 years from now?  5 year...

    Back out from purchase agreement

    Interesting post.. what did you finally end up doing? I have been pre-approved for Petaluma but not sure when I will be offered home.  Even if they offer and I pay my earnest deposit, it would be nice to know if I can get my deposit back (in case I back out after a week of signing the contract)?

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Yes, I did.  In 2 weeks I heard but it will be a few thousand dollars more in base price.  Not sure how long this price increase will go...if I consider the 40 phases planned for Petaluma (now at phase 25), will it be 870K base price for Residence 1 and 900+ for residence 2 and 3 when it...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    I cannot afford residence 2.  So, have to wait for the next release, but not sure if I should pay $900K (with basic upgrades, landscaping and window treatment) for the next release.  Or should I wait for that magical resale home to show up in my dream? ???

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Thanks YellowFever. Looks like you did not read my comments fully... I mentioned 'I just added my name in their interest and trying to get preapproval'.  So, I am aware of the process.  However, you seem to be dodging my direct question 'why are you not getting a call to book a home even if...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Not yet.  I just added my name in their interest list and trying to get pre-approval.  850K is the max (actually more than max) that I can go. But I am not sure if I should really get preapproval if people like you are waiting for more than 2 months. In 2 months, I will be priced out for sure...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    I was added to the interest list 1 week ago, so should I wait for 2 more months to even get a call?  Which means I may not get a home in Petaluma or priced out with price increases?

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Hi Experts, Thanks for the inputs.  So, it looks like it is safe to jump into the current or next couple of phases in Petaluma... Lower melloroos, lower HOA (detached condo) and proximity to school/park, good bit of distance from Jeffrey and from cellphone tower (atleast the current phase and...

    Petaluma or Marin ?

    Folks, thanks for all the information in this thread.  Debating Silverleaf in PS versus Petaluma plan 1 in EW.  Does location account for 150K price difference for a similar floor plan (Petaluma is slightly better floor plan for sure)?  Also, is the proximity of cellphone tower for future...
