I don’t feel bad renting either but we had been considering a larger rental which would cost considerably more than the $1350 we pay for the 3/1 we live in now. We wanted more space as the kids are getting bigger. So, we were thinking we were going to have to go closer to $2,000 a month for a larger house. I agree that Santee is going to continue to deflate, I was just trying to determine what kind of price might make it worth our while to buy instead of rent. Maybe right now there is no kind of price that would make it worth our while. Anyway, thanks for the your advice. I appreciate it. I probably need to wait until after a home inspection since I think the termites have been busy for decades. Thanks. D
