Parking in Mission Valley condo complexes, Mission Valley, San Diego, and California is a source of contention, and probably will remain so for the foreseeable future.

Some condominium complexes offer underground secured parking, individual garage parking, community garage parking, tandem garage parking, carport parking, and sometimes street parking, although I'm not aware of any Mission Valley condo complexes that rely solely on street parking.

Generally, you'll get at least one reserved parking space when you buy a condominium. Some will also provide you with a Visitor Pass. Since almost everyone in Southern California has their own car, if there are three or more adults who will be living in your condo, each with a car, finding parking nearby might be a strenuous and maddening activity.

Let your Realtor know exactly what you need in terms of parking so that you won't be looking at a condo that cannot meet your needs.
