Why are you here?

[UCGal]

I have no idea why I’m here. I’m on my third house, and it’s the house I grew up in. (Bought from my dad.) Not planning on leaving it till I go to an old folks home or die.

I guess I’m here because the discussions of the housing market are transferable to the overall economy. The bubble was a big part of the current mess and there is a fact based back and forth discussion about that here. I may not be in the market for a house – but I am a participant in the broader economy.

I enjoy the discussions of different neighborhoods. As someone who’s a native San Diegan, tried other states and made a choice to come back – it’s interesting to me to see what people say about different ‘hoods.

And I wish duuuude would post more about battlebots – that is SO cool.

Don’t forget the neat manicules.

I’m here because there’s good info posted by some smart people. Some it relates tangentially to local housing issues. 🙂

Will I still be here after I buy? Maybe, but I think I’ll want to put the whole house hunt nightmare behind me. I feel like I’ve been hanging out at a used car dealership for the past year, waiting for the right car to come in.

I’ll make this my first post. I’ve been reading (lurking) since around 2005. Our family was growing and I felt that we needed to purchase a larger home. Prices were crazy and I couldn’t understand how our friends, neighbors and co-workers were coming up with so much cash to purchase $750,000+ houses.

This site (and ocrenter’s) were about the only sources of sanity – regarding real estate – at the time.

As for when we’ll purchase, it’s hopefully not going to take another four years of waiting!

I am here to hopefully one day become a home owner.

I am here because I have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and information.

I am here to engage in debate with people who have different opinions than myself.

I am here as a hedge against the echo-chambers of the Internets.

I am here because different people from different backgrounds, ages, races, religions, locations, incomes, political leanings, and experiences have been brought together by a common interest.

Most of all, I am here to learn.
