To clarify some numbers -- 1800 is the approximate total number of condos and townhomes in the entire Monterey Hills planned community.  Temple Terrace is one of the complexes in Monterey Hills and the only one that consists of both condos and townhomes and that total is 122 units.   

While it is still a sellers' market, there are more than just one unit for sale in all of Monterey Hills.  As I write this comment, there are eleven out of around 1800 on the market.  Not a lot but there are some choices and it does change often.
