      I just moved to the OC from santa barbara because it is too much. I just bought a house here for $580,000 but it's got a built in pool hut tub 4 bedroom 2 car garage in a nice neighborhood. Funny though I was just reading only 11% of socal can afford to buy a house where they live.

      Crazy

      But santa barabara I would run fast if I wear you.

                I had to move in with my parents a while ago because of high rent. We pay here 1150 a month.

                This same house went on the market for sale at 469k over 4 months ago and still hasent been sold.

                So I know how you feel.

                    Born and raised in Santa Barbara, thank God my parents bought some real estate way back when. I would never be able to own a home here otherwise.

                    Try Ventura, it's about 30 miles south. It's going up average 25%-27% annually and has been for the past 5 years. You can still get homes starting at 300-400k

                      Well Yeah but thats Santa Barbara (Celebrity land) Cali is the best because of the wheather. I really appreciate California anytime I go to another state Like Florida, NY or Nevada. Horrible Fucking Wheather

                        It's crazy out here. I think I'll last another 6 months to a year and then I'm gone. I'd like to be able to get something decent for $300k, sounds funny but it's true. I could go back to my hometown and live like a king for $300k, in SoCal you can't buy shit for 300.

                            The house prices in Santa Barbara are expensive, therefore you don't understand how anyone in ALL of California can afford to live.

                            That makes sense.
                            I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
                            I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

                              I do live in a pretty damn nice complex though with lots of facilities. But regardless it is ... quite pricey.

                                  Same Here... I bought a house in Glendale, Ca. last July for 415K it was apraised last month for 720K. Thats a 205k jump in a little over a year! California Properties are getting more and more expensive daily, but house prices should drop right after the elections!

                                    That is a nice area. Lake Forest is much better in my opinon. How long have you been down here?

                                            Thats looks like a very nice house. In Cali, that house would cost at least 4 or 5 million.

                                                I think it's called the sunshine tax....that is the reason behind the high property values...300+ days of sunshine a year...

I'd like to be able to get something decent for $300k, sounds funny but it's true. I could go back to my hometown and live like a king for $300k, in SoCal you can't buy shit for 300.
                                                  for 300K you can get two normal nice size houses in my area..

                                                  fuck those insane Cali prices.

                                                    This house is under a mil here, makes me not want to leave this shitty state



                                                    Very nice :P a house like htat would probably be arround a mill arround here ... maybe a lil bit less

                                                              For 300k, you could buy a house in Cali, but it would probably be very small and in a neighborhood with lots of gangs and graffiti.

                                                                  California is definitely expensive. I live in San Francisco. The San Francisco Bay Area as a whole is more expensive than Southern California (LA Areas).

                                                                  The median home pice in the Bay Area is like $550K for a 3 bedroom. Even in the ghetto prices start at $400K

                                                                  I grew up in Burlingame which is an expensive suburb of San Francisco. We sold that home back in '95 for $400K. Now it's worth well over 1.5 million. It's a 2 story 3 bedroom house..nothing overly fancy. Wish we still owned it.

                                                                  With the money I make in porn I decided to buy real estate as an investment since property value keeps climbing. So about 3 years ago I bought a 4 unit apartment complex in San Francisco. It cost almost $900K. I live in one of the units. The building is now worth about 1.4 million

                                                                  Property value just keeps on rising. I say California is a great investment opportunity. Prices aren't going to drop anytime soon. Heck look at Manhattan. I know condos there go for over 1 million. So I think it's safe to say California will just keep increasing in price.

                                                                  So yes it's expensive but if you can get your foot in the door and buy at least a condo or something you'll definetly make your money back and then some..

                                                                      Good investment. But man, I'd love to have a huge house on acres for the same price, which is what I'd get in other parts of the country for the same dollar.

                                                                      I'm looking into options, but I'd probably still keep this house and get another somewhere outside of California.

                                                                            A one bedroom Apt. 1/2 block from my office was $ 750.00 went up to $ 1,450.00.

                                                                            it's the last large place for the developers, building like mad here.
