Paloma Del Sol Community
If you are living in the Southern California area you understand how high property taxes can be on new home builds. This is one of the main reasons why I wanted to write a blog and produce a video on the ultimate low tax community in Temecula. Paloma Del Sol is nothing short of spectacular. It has everything a resident would want and this blog post will take you through the community and give you an idea of everything Paloma Del Sol has to offer. As a real estate broker, I feel it is very important to have the conversation with prospective buyer clients about tax rates. You’re buying power diminishes greatly when the tax rates doubles, which is the case in many of these new communities when you add in, Mello Roos, special assessments and HOAs.
Paloma Del Sol was established In 1990, homes range from a 1000 sq/ft to 2900 sqft. and tax rates are going to run at 1.2% to 1.4%. I don’t usually talk about home prices because they are always changing but Temecula is one of the most affordable cities in all of Southern California. When you factor in things like safety, amenities like restaurants, golf courses, hospitals and the proximity of these amenities to your home there really isn’t a city that comes close to Temecula in my opinion.
Paloma Del Sol HOA
You can argue that Paloma Del Sol has one of the best HOAs in Temecula. One of my pet peeves is paying $150 for an HOA fee and only getting some common grounds taken care of. These HOA’s give no benefit to the homeowner. I’d rather have my hundred dollars and cut the 10 by 10 lawn piece myself.
The Difference
Paloma Del Sol is different, it has five pools, barbecues, tot Lots, frisbee golf, hot tubs, miles and miles of walking paths and an overall sense of relaxation and quiet. One of the reasons I feel Temecula is one of the best cities to live in, in Southern California is the communities. They are very quiet, safe and relaxing but have access to grocery stores, restaurants and fun activities, all within 5 to 10 minutes.
If you live in Southern California you understand how precious time is because of traffic. Have no worries, Paloma Del Sol is close to everything you need. The cost of the Paloma Del Sol HOA is going to be around $100 a month.
Schools
If you have school-age children, Temecula has some of the best schools in all of California. They consistently rank in both test scores and the overall environment in the top 20% in California. If you Google Temecula school rankings, you can get a ton of information.
The schools in Paloma Del Sol include Paloma Elementary School, Temecula Middle School, and Temecula Valley High School. Another great thing about the schools and the community is how many kids you’ll see walking to and from school and home. This is obviously a huge benefit for the busy family. While I was filming the video I saw at least 30 kids walking home from school at different times.
What We Love
One of the things we absolutely love about Paloma Del Sol is the number of walking paths. There are literally miles and miles of beautiful trails cut through the community. I touched on this point a little earlier in the blog but when you are walking on the trails of Paloma Del Sol you truly feel like you’re in the country. Yes, there are homes along the walking trails but you constantly hear birds chirping and when blowing.
Being wine lovers we also love the proximity Paloma Del Sol is to Wine Country in Temecula. If you are not familiar with the area, Temecula truly is the hidden gem of California wineries.

Important Amenities Near By
There are a ton of amenities nearby, which include grocery stores like Albertsons, Walmart Island Pacific Market, and Stater Brothers. You have Temeku Hills and Redhawk Golf Course close by and also Ronald Reagan Sports Park with many activities for kids. They have baseball fields, BMX riding areas, soccer areas, and swimming pools, which cost $1 for Temecula residents.
