I miss Norcal, too! I can almost “feel” the breezes on the deck overlooking Mt. Tamalpais just gazing at those pics! I can totally imagine that nice tall stone fireplace crackling with the patio screen open!AK, are you considering moving?? I try not to look too much at RE in Norcal because I don’t want to “dream” about something I can’t do right now . . . lol :=(
[/quote]I used to live in NorCal when I was a kid, had several friends who lived just down the street from that house. Believe me, the view to the north and east is absolutely amazing on a spring morning. Part of me would love to buy that place … it’s only about 80% out of my price range π But now I’m too settled in So Cal to move back.
From the pictures it seems beautiful, and impeccably maintained. But it’s probably all but uninsulated, heats up like a ****** in summer, and costs a small fortune to heat in winter … and yeah, builders cut corners even in 1971, so who knows what you’d find?
I’ll enjoy my O’Side tract house and reminisce of all those beautiful summer evenings spent choking on exhaust fumes on the 101 π

ParticipantTake a look at these groovy original Harvest Gold appliances:

Looks like the kitchen in the house I grew up in … except the cabinets were stained in a matching color.

ParticipantYeah, I guess it’ll drive up costs for employers and policyholders.
No, I don’t think it’s practical for many young adults to purchase private health insurance … it’s hard to qualify for an individual policy unless you’re in absolutely perfect health, and that age group gets raked over the coals for car insurance. And let’s face it, a car is a necessity, especially since relying on public transit shrinks the pool of potential jobs drastically.
No, I don’t think that young adults are net beneficiaries because when they do get their own insurance, they’ll be required to pay higher premiums to subsidize old farts like myself.
I don’t think this is necessarily a blue state / red state issue, since the trend of covering adult children started in some of the reddest states of all.
