[quote=bearishgurl][quote=Rustico] . . . Other good news, the three people who have, or are building around me, are building upper piggington type country estates. I had planned on getting the worst house on the best block in this fashion. For the most part the “code nazis” have made it so that only rich people can afford to do what I did, and they don’t want no little 2280 sqft house :). . . [/quote]
Well, Rustico, remember the old RE adage, “Buy the worst house on the best block you can afford??”
What’s happening on your “block” sounds like the reverse of that “old adage” here, that is, the “best block” is actually coming to your “worst” … lol, house, but the end result is the same! Your *new* neighbors will finish all their expensive landscaping, pools, corrals and portico driveways just in time to shore up your “appraisal comps” for retirement purposes. That is, if you decide to “fly the coop” after the kids leave the nest. Maybe you’ll just end up “retiring in place” there amongst the “well-heeled” set along with their “well-shod” equine friends :=]
I haven’t been out there in years, but isn’t there premium 18-hole golfing down the road at Steele Cyn? Is that course open to the public?[/quote]
What’s golf?
