Thanks for your generosity. I am actually a diversely limited individual when it comes to what I am looking for in a neighborhood or home. What I am mean by diversely limited is I prefer not to live in an area where you have no HOA rules and everyone has their low riding street mowers without a muffler and dog tied to a pole in the front yard laying on the couch. I also don’t want to be in a neighborhood where I am fined by the HOA for not driving a Mercedes and/or left my garage door open for 31 minutes when it is a limit of 30 minutes. I’m a diverse person as long as it comes in between those two and from what I can tell, pretty much 90% of Temecula and Murrieta is like what I am wanting but now I am doubting this based on others feedback.
My biggest concern is to have my two toddlers go through schools that don’t have gang-banger parents like we have in Oceanside. My 4 year old will start pre-school this year and we will need to drive him over to his grandparents neighborhood of Carlsbad just to get away from this crap.
My goal is long term for Temecula and we hope to live in a location that people actually say Hi and are genuinely decent people. I am done with the “living la vida loca” mentality that everyone around us has here. If all goes well, I hope to have a 2nd home in the same area within 10 years as an investment opportunity (I already own one investment home in my hometown of KC). Funny, I own an investment property but have never owned my own home and still rent. LOL I couldn’t pass up the 30% return on a rental property so in the long run, it was a smart decision to buy someone else a home before my own.
Are you a Realtor by chance, or know an honest one that you would refer? I will be looking for at some point.
