I have been living in the UC for 3 months and I have come to accept that I will be living there as a renter and not an owner. Comparable houses to what I am living in are still commanding 620K to 680K range. This is without major upgrades. For the record I am in a 4/2 or 3/2 with office. I am seeing some lovely upgrades in the neighborhood commanding the 750K to 800K range. Great nieghborhood too. I am actually getting tired of saying “hello” to everyone that passes by the house. Its a very welcoming/friendly neighborhood. I know all my neigbors names which is priceless in these times.
I just better not catch UCGal’s dog leaving a steaming package on the front yard though! 😛
