Best Site To Find a Used Condo in SDU5

With gasoline at close to $5, and your decisoin to leave the exurbs and move to downtown SD, you have a few choices to help you find that SDU5 condo. My favorites are:

San Diego Condo Information
At this site I like the easy look-up of information, and the low-pressure sell. There is lots of information about the condominium buildings for sale, information about the condominium buildings, and very little pressure to force you to the realtor. This is definitely a realtor's site, however it is more about information, and less about forcing you to contact the realtor to find out about the unit for sale.

Overall - High Rating. Good Information. Easily Researched. Low Realtor Limitation

San Diego Condos
This site is one of the most popular results in a web search on downtown San Diego Condos. This site is high on graphics, and low easy to use content.

In the first web site listed above, all of the units are listed in a row. This web site lists each unit individually, with pictures and additional content. If you are looking for information on a particular condo, this is probably a better site. If you want to see, and compare all of the units for sale in a building, then SDCondo.com is probably better.

The last site is Live At The Top
This site has its information in a realtor style, which, for this reader, makes it difficult to use. When accessing information on a condo, it brings me to a screen, and I have to scroll within that screen, which takes up about 40% of my laptop's computer screen. Overall, it seems like a site with good information that is poorly presented.


As always, if you are looking for what someone paid, there are several resources, including
Zillow
