Not set on buying yet, but like you said it will be best for the family and I’m ready to settle into one home/school district until my kids go to college (they’re 9 and 6). I think I remember seeing your posts as a matter of fact and respect your decision to buy. Like you said, it’s a personal decision. At the peak of the market this house was valued at $955K. The last owner bought it for $755K in 2004, and I think I’ve got a reasonable shot at a $580K transaction.
Ultimately, it comes down to family proximity. If the commute is too much, I’ll just find a new job. The beauty of the military retirement check is I don’t have to ask for 6-figure wages, even though that’s what I have waiting for me up here in LA.
Your guys look ready to run the table in the Pac-10 this year…OJ Mayo hasn’t helped our team one bit.
