[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 593127, member: 47"] In Ca you couldn't buy a shed for 50,000 LOL When I bought my house in 85, it was 110,000 and 50 miles away from where I worked, but it was the only place I could afford - living close to work wasn't an option and I didn't want to raise the kids in the city. At the highest point of the real estate market, I could have sold it for about 700,000 but the problem was where would I move to. Plus Ca taxes are more or less frozen when you buy a house - its only when you buy another house, you pay the going rate on the taxes on what you pay for it. Right now my taxes are 2% of what I paid for the house originally. Houses in the neighborhood don't even last a month before they are sold and prices start at 550,000 + Other than dealing with earthquakes, I like living in Ca but could never afford to move to a decent neighborhood elsewhere.
