Next!
I'm pressing on in the search for a home. After last week's debacle (thanks a lot, Adam, for buying that out from under me!), I'm expanding my search to include areas outside of Berkeley. For one thing, it is possible to get more for your money. Additionally, you can get a little more peace, pay slightly lower taxes and fees on the transaction.
The main problem with expanding the search is that now there are so many options! By the water? In the hills? North of Berkeley? South? Why not go to Walnut Creek where houses cost even less and you get even more? Isn't there a good outlook for appreciation in areas like that?
This is one good thing about not being in a hurry - I can afford to take time answering these questions.

good luck, lance! buying a house scares me. so you are way ahead of me on that. 10 points for you. maybe you would have gotten that other house if you'd been wearing red pants...you think?
