I was in Philly this weekend. I really don't enjoy cities but Philly is pretty cool and their china town is totally better then NYC's.
yeah it is. SF is a mini NYC
maybe that's why i like it so much....san francisco is one of those places i would really love to live (just like the tanners!)
oh yeah me too, becasue it has that east coast feel, but on the west side
totally...hey, do you know if real estate there is notoriously expensive like san diego and la?
its more so. you're looking to pay close to $1M for a condo
woah! thats insane...oh well...guess i won't be living there in the near future
rent.
I'd never be able to afford real estate in hawaii. not anytime soon anyway.
yeah, i just hate seeing money disappear when you could have it going somewhere...like towards a mortgage
property taxes aer a killer also. some are paying $3K + for property taxes here in CA
wow, that's cheap! property must be smaller there....because people out here pay $12,000-$15,000 for an acre
oh its not cheap for what you have. you've been here, we go by sq footage, not acres. that would be a LOAD of money if it were acres, but there's not enough land. maybe in the 909
my in-laws in western PA pay like $60 a year for real estate taxes. makes me cry.
WOW that is crazy!! awesome but so unreal here! my parents signed over the house to me and my sister.. My dad kept his name as a 3rd party whatever and since he's still on there, our property taxes are like $800
I hear ya, when I first got married we were renting an apartment for like $660 a month, and we thought the same way you did. So we bought a house and was paying $1280 a month and our taxes were like $6000 a year, worked out a lot better to know we were going to have something to show for it. After I left the house I was paying $1005 a month and wanted to vomit. It's sad to see all that money wasted and have nothing to show for it. But in Hawaii I'll be doing rent again and who knows, maybe one day I'll find something, but rent for now. Who knows what you'll come into. Get out of NY it could be a nice change for you. :)
yeah, i'd like to try something different....i don't want to live in NY the rest of my life just by default....if i'm gonna live here...i want it to be because i've experianced other things and made a choice
Delaware the land of opportunity
Yeah, same goes for us with Phoenix. But it's really good that Adam's dad is a real estate agent there...hahahaha. :)
