[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=mrkenneth]I am one of those pesky Canadians competing to buy an affordable property here. All because American landlords are so greedy! Back in Vancouver, landlords run charities and rent out properties below cost.[/quote]

Are you buying a second home or as a full time resident?

Saving money makes much more sense when savings accounts have higher interest rates than mortgages! Actually, my parents borrow to save. 🙂

Does the Chinese quartz supplier have a showroom or warehouse in San Diego?
