Bayside Condos and Town Homes With Ocean Views In Downtown San Diego by Bosa Development.

When shopping for new homes in Downtown San Diego, there is one name with which everyone quickly becomes familiar: Bosa. The Bosa Development Corporation, a privately held company led by its founder and president Nat Bosa, has built seven condominium projects containing more than 1,700 units in downtown San Diego over the past nine years, and three times that many in Vancouver and Alberta Canada during the course of his career. The complete projects, although substantially different in style and location, all collectively share the name “Bosa Buildings.” What these projects all share is a reputation as sophisticated, mostly upscale modern, and always well-planned new home developments in downtown san Diego.

Recently opened in downtown San Diego is Bosa’s latest project, Bayside at the Embarcadero. The Bayside project opened with 232 condominiums for sale at prices from $569,000 to $3.4 Million. Designed for function and with a great sense of flow, the Bayside condos a gorgeous example of the Bosa design expertise. Most of the units at Bayside have panoramic ocean and San Diego bay views. Select from one or two-bedroom floor plans, but each floorplan is practically unique. Amenities at the building include full-time desk staff, resort-style swimming pool and recreation area, plus a fully equipped fitness club and sauna.

Nat Bosa is quoted this week in the San Diego Union Tribune with his thoughts about the current market for new homes in downtown San Diego, the events which have led the market to where it is today, and the direction that the real estate market is heading. Mr. Bosa is an experienced real estate developer, age 64, and in the real estate business for most of his life. Originally from Vancouver, he has been building new homes in San Diego since 2001, and his track record is unmarred by failure.

Looking back, Bosa largely blames the banks for leading us into the housing downturn by making so many loans to unqualified home buyers. At present Mr. Bosa feels that San Diego real estate is a huge bargain. He is puzzled by the reluctance of qualified home buyers to buy at today’s prices.

Mr. Bosa says properties downtown are so “stinking cheap, it’s ridiculous”. He confidently says that reluctant home buyers will be sorry if they don’t buy now because “Prices are going to rise instantly by 20 to 25 percent from where they are today.” How does Mr. Bosa know? He’s been through a lot of market downturns and recoveries. “I’ve seen it every time”, he says.
