SGUD missile Posted April 28, 2005 Report Posted April 28, 2005 Chris, just a warning. The Pacific Northwest, although one of the most beautiful regions of the country, is as blue as it gets (unless as was mentioned earlier you want to live east of the Cascades). Washington State for example has a Democrat Governor, both Senators are Democrat, both houses of state government firmly in Dem hands and we also have some of the most progressive Representatives in the House (McDermott & Jay Inslee). So, we welcome you to Seattle with open arms, but be warned...you just might become a liberal. so ..whats so wrong with THAT ??? why do you think I moved here from texas ???? Quote
catesta Posted April 28, 2005 Author Report Posted April 28, 2005 chris are we still going to a d-backs game? jeff Jeff, we will need to do it either in May or June. I have access to some tickets at times, so let me know your thoughts. Quote
catesta Posted April 28, 2005 Author Report Posted April 28, 2005 Whatever happened to Michigan? If its urban sprawl that is bothering you, I do not recommend New York, New Jersey or most of Connecticut. Another factor working against those states (and Pennsylvania, I think) is that there are state income taxes. You will definitely take a major hit there. On the other hand, if you are in Westchester County or Connecticut, we'd be able to hook up whenever I visit the folks. Then I'd be able to knock off another name from my list of organissimo buds. Er, I mean, scratch off another name from my list of organissimo buds. Aw hell, you know what I mean. Yeah,, what about Michigan?? The weather is fairly mild, and you could come out and hear Organissimo! I was hoping to swing in and catch a gig when I was driving to wherever the hell it is I'm going to be driving to. B-) I'm not ruling Michigan out. Quote

wesbed Posted April 28, 2005 Report Posted April 28, 2005 I ain't a scared of no blue, east coast or west. Just scared of a little heat. (I'm joking, really) Quote

catesta Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Posted May 27, 2005 The "other" house goes on the market this weekend. We did a lot of improvements, I'm glad it's all over. I say that with my fingers crossed. The real estate agent is expecting the house to sell in less than a week. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted May 27, 2005 Report Posted May 27, 2005 The real estate agent is expecting the house to sell in less than a week. ← Will she/he give you points as odds? Quote
catesta Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Posted May 27, 2005 Good question. Right now the market it pretty hot here. I sold my home before the sign went on the lawn. I would be happy if this place sells within a month. Quote
Peter Johnson Posted May 27, 2005 Report Posted May 27, 2005 We sold our house in Philly last weekend in 20 hours. Unbelievable. This market is insane. Quote
Ron S Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 We sold our house in Philly last weekend in 20 hours. Unbelievable. This market is insane. ← Where in Philly? Quote
catesta Posted June 2, 2005 Author Report Posted June 2, 2005 The agent took offers up until 8:00 PM lastnight. About 40 people came to view the house between Sunday and yesterday. At this time all offers are at or above asking price. Quote

catesta Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Posted June 3, 2005 Well, it looks like it will all be over in the next 30 days. Quote
Ron S Posted June 3, 2005 Report Posted June 3, 2005 Well, it looks like it will all be over in the next 30 days. ← The world? Or just your relocation saga? Quote

Jazzmoose Posted June 3, 2005 Report Posted June 3, 2005 Assuming it's just the relocation saga, I'm jealous; looks like ours is going to take longer than expected. If it's the world, than nevermind-it doesn't really matter... Quote

catesta Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Posted June 3, 2005 Of course it's the relocation business. It will probably take longer than 30 days, but this place is sold and we need to be out at the end of the month. Ended up getting $12.5K over the asking price. Quote
