SD R,

You bring up a lot of good points, but I would only do the commute for 1 year max, if the transfer doesn’t happen in that timreframe I’ll look for employment with another firm closer to SD. Conversely, there will be weeks that I don’t have to commute at all. Heck, my new firm just hired a woman in Boise Idaho to work for the Los Angeles office (from Boise), so I think I have considerable flexibility.

I would be more concerned about being away if I were in an area where we had no family or friends, but with Grandma and Grandpa three streets away (they live on Aguamiel, the home I’m looking at is on Moon Song Ct), I’m not as worried about the absences from home occasionally. Hell, a lot of guys travel that much weekly for business.

I am concerned about the condition of the home. It’s a nice street and this house is the stinker on the block. It needs to be updated in kitchen and bath, needs carpet and a new back yard, had water damage in a bathroom etc. I have heard that REOs get balked at when the offer is too low, but this place really needs about $100K of work to it.

Interestingly enough, my father in law went over to take a look at it and a lady across the street suddenly appeared and presto, she’s a real estate agent and she let him in. Knew a lot about the house. She then gave him her business card and it had her address on it – it was the same address as the home that’s for sale! Not sure if she bought it and lost it to foreclosure or what, but that’s kind of fishy.

I’d love to know what the comps look like on that street because I’d like to know what I could reasonably offer and still not take it in the shorts. My kids are excited about the notion of living there too.

I know your name is Adam, could you e-mail me at [email protected] and we can discuss this further?

Thanks

Bubble Hype Bruin,

Not set on buying yet, but like you said it will be best for the family and I’m ready to settle into one home/school district until my kids go to college (they’re 9 and 6). I think I remember seeing your posts as a matter of fact and respect your decision to buy. Like you said, it’s a personal decision. At the peak of the market this house was valued at $955K. The last owner bought it for $755K in 2004, and I think I’ve got a reasonable shot at a $580K transaction.

Ultimately, it comes down to family proximity. If the commute is too much, I’ll just find a new job. The beauty of the military retirement check is I don’t have to ask for 6-figure wages, even though that’s what I have waiting for me up here in LA.

Your guys look ready to run the table in the Pac-10 this year…OJ Mayo hasn’t helped our team one bit.
