Is LA an really amazing place to live? I google map it sometimes and it just looks like any other US urban sprawl city.

The nice parts are super awesome, however you need a housing budget of like $2.5 million to live there.

The shitty parts are super duper awful.

I thought LA sucked when I visited. Lots of cool places as a tourist but the urban and suburban hell sprawl is a blight on this earth. I’m looking at you too Houston.

Much of LA is a hell sprawl. I don’t think we’ll spend any time south of the Hollywood sign, which is where I consider most of awfulness to be. We’re going to end up in Northeast LA or Pasadena. More trees in the neighborhood and access to hiking are the goals.

No matter what, this is going to be a big change from my environment in Boston. But we’ll be closer to family, which is the big condition for the move.

Hah I’m in Boston too. Definitely a different world.

Builder pulled the guaranteed date (mid June). Guessing my lock will expire and my rate will be even higher.

My friend building in the same sub who is a few weeks ahead is having them pay to maintain his rate lock.

I’d be satisfied with that.

He knew how to make the guarantee, he just didn’t know how to keep the guarantee. And that’s really the important part of the guarantee. Anyone can make them!

So home builder stocks are basically around pre-covid 2020 prices… does that suggest that Wall Street believes a housing correction is coming?

WSJ has been having some cool data visualizations recently

SF is so fucked they can’t even put it on there despite it being a top 20 market

Hell, if you include San Jose in the urban area its number 6

lol @ Miami, where it’s practically better to buy and sell if you’ve got a three-month gig

But if you’re not careful, you may have to sell to Aquaman.
