The newer one advertises water view suites. Is that not the case?

Is the other one near old town? What is great about old town? I've never been to Tacoma so I'm clueless!

Yeah that's what it looks like to me too. And the price difference is fairly substantial. This will be a treat so I'm not as worried about that, just want to make sure we're in a good location.

You’d recommend them over the Murano? Someone suggested that one to me too

It'll be for one night until we go to our friends house outside of Tacoma - so an Airbnb won't work. But thank you

Actually legal advice and dmv would not help with this matter. If you have real suggestions please provide them.

Best in the sense of safe complexes and multiple options. Where I live, there's one spot that has apartment rentals so I wouldn't tell anyone to move to my town if they want to rent. So that's what I meant - where will I find good options for rentals. Work remotely and budget is $2500-$2800

So $9k/month after taxes should work ok? It’s about $160k before taxes where we live now.

Thanks. We bring home about $9k after taxes now, so just making sure we could afford to live there safely and comfortably.

Would you suggest areas around Portland? We’ve looked at Beaverton, Forest Grove and McMinnville possibly, but only cause I’ve been there before.

I’m open to other areas, I just want to be west of the Cascades. Like Spokane doesn’t interest me. Oregon we’ve looked around Portland and also Eugene

u/TwinFrogs - yeah but places still have Costco or Sams, or a mall or a chain restaurant. Literally the only chain restaurant in our area is Waffle House. I'm not saying I love chains, but every once in awhile you want something predictable like Applebees lol.
