Well i finally went out to Surprise,AZ last week and i bought a house. Surprise was actually pretty nice, most of the city is brand new.

Here is the house i bought
http://www.richmondamerican.com/Shop... 11597&cm=1421

Its probably gonna be alot more then 371k after i pick all my upgrades next month in the design center.But i get 3% off base price,a free 17k pool that i can upgrade for extra money if i want and a list of upgrades that total about 26k. So total i get about 50k worth of incentives.

I must have looked at 100 model homes from 20 different builders/communities, almost all of them were giving nice incentives..

There were alot of nice houses there for the fraction of the cost for a house here where i live in CA. Actually i cant buy a house in my city for less then 500k unless its a mobile home.

Someone mentioned El Mirage was a good place,i drove through that city from what i could tell all the houses were very old and it felt like the ghetto but maybe i was in the bad area of El Mirage.
