noahgibbsI think I've found it.
A house.
I need to be sure, but I've had a look around inside it, and I know the price, and I've talked to the realtor and the lending agent and my investment guy...
Yeah.
That was fast. I mean, I looked at a bunch of places, but still. That was fast.
It'd be in Fremont, so I need to get some driving times. They don't look too bad, but I need to be sure. And I need to see how the on-street parking is, though it looked pretty good. And it's right near a school, so resale value is unlikely to be a big problem, particularly in the time frame I'm looking at (unmarried, no kids, no quick prospects for either one).
Hey, Brian -- you'll be getting a message shortly. Two-car garage and a bedroom spare, plus it's further South than I'd figured :-)

Date: 2002-10-13 04:50 pm (UTC)My driving times to San Mateo are in the 20-40 minute range. I'm not sure where you are going these days. The Dumbarton bridge traffic is ok, except when it isn't.

Date: 2002-10-13 05:00 pm (UTC)I'm in luck, I'll be driving to Sunnyvale/SanJose and to the Berkeley area, but not to San Mateo.
And I'm on a motorcycle, so traffic on the Dumbarton won't be too bad. I'd worry about commuting on the bike, except I've been doing it without incident for the last year and a half, rain or shine.
