Long time lurker, first time poster.
1)I rent, after making the move from SD to LA
2)I sold in February due to a job change, but had been eyeing the market cautiously for some time
3)Could have made more if I had sold in Aug or Sept of 2005
4)After reading lots on the topic, I concluded there was a bubble in April or May. A friend of mine warned me about a bubble several years ago, and a former co-worker sold in 2003 to bubble sit. A little early, but doing well now.
5)No, not going to move back to SD. Wages are much lower than LA and contrary to popular opinion, not everyone wants to live in San Diego. It’s a nice thing for San Diegans to say and even believe, but as a local (born there in 1975), I have no intention to move back.
