No, not at all. This is all so crazy. I’m going to talk to my doctor about getting the drugs that everyone else is taking.

Wait, this is only 2,000 sq. ft.? $600K?

I just think as a society, we have lost our minds.

I do agree that there are a large number of SFR developments that are really just detached townhouses.

Best of luck on your purchase.

I’m obviously out of touch with reality. My expectations are all a kilter.

I understand the areas listed are the “desirable” areas but, the those prices seem outrageous to me. I have a hard time with $600-700K for a SFR much less a townhouse.

I really have a hard time seeing how these numbers make sense. I have an even harder time with the volume of people that are more than willing to pay/borrow that kind of money.

The psychology seems to be something akin to, “the more I pay, the better I am”.

And, this isn’t directed at the OP. This is just a general observation. I know quite a few people that have bought in the last year that are a hiccup away from financial ruin but, they love it. They’re unable to do much beyond pay the mortgage but, are happy. At least, that’s how they appear outwardly.

I’ve been visiting piggington for around three years or so. In the that time I had come to think of the community here as financially responsible, savy even. I’m not sure what has changed.

It has to be me. If I’m the only one to not see Jesus on the Frito-Lay, does that mean that I’m crazy? Wait, on second thought, it’s not just piggington. I have this feeling at work, with friends, other web forums.

When things feel apart last fall/winter, I thought we were on the road back to financial responsiblity and a sense of reality. It hasn’t even been a year since the end was upon us and it seems as though a large number of the population just wants to keep it going.

I’m either crazy, a fool, or I just didn’t get the memo.

[quote=CardiffBaseball]Jesu Christo!!! 15K, and my company talking of moving us to the land of the mouse in central Florida. Homes now under $100/sq. foot (and for good reason, it’s hot, humid and yucky)….

15K would go a long way over there where a really nice screened in pool house in a good nabe isn’t much over 200k. Anyone know any Orlando housing blogs?[/quote]

Another company looking to leave Southern California. There seems to be a trend here.

May I ask, what industry is your company in?

Florida isn’t bad. It’s just a flatter, wetter California. Pretty good cultural diversity (assuming you’re not against that).
