Another San Diegan moving to Denver (me!)

[ArmoRealtor]

My gut say’s go for it. You can always come back.

I do however have a really good friend from high school that did the same thing about 3 years ago and is in the process of coming back. I thought that everything was going great for him out there and was amazed when I heard he had put his house on the market that he purchased just over a year ago.

When I asked him why he’s coming back his response to me was that he really misses being able to sit on the beach with his family and friends on the weekends. I do think that part of it is the aspect that we grew up surfing together and while many may try to say it is, the mountains are not the same. The second part of what he said was his family. He just had a baby girl and whether or not he admits it, in my mind that is why he is coming back. He came out for a couple weeks when she was born, but it was’nt enough and it never will be. I believe some people can live somewhere else and talk to family and others want their family to be more involved and vice versa. I would say that is a huge question you need to ask yourself. Is a few days a year with your family and friends enough? Sure you’ll make new friends yada yada, but it will not be the same as the people that you grew up with and that people that watched you grow up.

Maybe that is some off topic rambling, but I hope it helps and wish you the best of luck either way. If your looking for a home in the bloomington area I know someone thats selling one!

Denver is a big city but from everything I know its economy is more boom bust oriented than San Diego. Its also very Arid. The mountains are gorgeous, but are just like the beach. If you don’t take advantage of them, you are living in Kansas next to them (A high dry plane with unpredictable weather).

Colorado Springs is home to angry Jesus (focus on the family), but its got its fair share of open minded folks too. Houses are cheaper, salaries are lower.

Even though my ex swore up and down that the Mexican food was better there, I think she’s full of it.

I’d like some of your thoughts. This is a huge life decision we are not taking lightly and I value the Pigg (most, anyway) opinion. I know…I know…it gets cold and snows there![/quote]

If you think what you are doing is excellent approach. What left in CA …? except the enviroment many folks compare. This sort of weather and environment you still get in many places. Don’t forget onething, even today if you can able to buy home here there is no gurantee tomorrow (whenever you want to sell) there is any amount you can getback due to various things not controlled by you… a few here as my selftalk

We are not sure howmany deadly acts are going to be exercised by various groups that trying to damage US economically. Fortunately we escaped in recent two such terror acts. If any such hit again occurs our economy onceagin nosedive.

We are not looking even any nearby flash in the recovery path as this mostly these days tied up with Globalization and other several factors which I can’t even think.

Instead of Blah Blah … it is been proved try to living in Homes (after buying) became a pure luck and you need to sell that home with in THE PARTICULAR time if you need at least see some profit or squared-up, if you miss that time then one has to wait another big chunk of time to get that such chance or sell home with loss.

So bottomline is .. you are doing excellent and life is not tieup with only homebuying and wested there forever.

I would visit during another season, like winter, to see how you like the weather. I would also check out the schools and their scores since you have children. It is also better to move when they are young, too. Everything else sounds like a green light and I think basements are very nice to have. Keep us posted.
