But you know, putting myself 300,000 to 700,000 dollars in the hole for a home in california? Suuuurre. 300K is like.. in a Getto, or a Barrio. (edit: Hell, youd be lucky to get a condo for that much. I even looked at those. 400K! ) A home in a decent neighborhood runs half a million or more. At least, last i looked. If i buy a home now, it will be when i move from california. There's a reason why this place is nicknamed, "cantaffordya".

You are not restricted by where you live. That is the beauty of the US. get out of California. Cali is dieing and taking you along.

Las Vegas have lower rent and home rates. You can buy property at @$1 in Detroit. its a home don't limit yourself.
