House flipping back in vogue in North County San Diego

Good times are here again in residential property. House flippers are back and have now moved to foreclosure auctions.  Below is a house that was bought in foreclosure at $945,000 in November and is now on the market for $1.4 to 1.5 million. 4100 square feet and swimming pool. Fairbanks Ranch. Cheapest house in the area too. What’s not to like?

Jim the Realtor does mention some serious imperfections though. Take a look.

Update: and if you missed the courthouse action, this video from last month shows how the flippers get their properties.
