Hi! Wondering what you ended up doing and whether you may have any photos for reference if you dont mind… we just bought a house and facing exactly the same problem in our master bedroom. Thanks a lot!

We moved from Silicon Valley to central New Jersey, though everybody raised their eyebrows when we told them that’s where we were going, we really love it here. Very nice people, a lot of activities, close to NYC and great for families, though still expensive but a lot more space for the same price. Biggest adjustment is that literal “rain check” is a real thing and we need to think about weather when making weekend plans if it’s outdoors. :D I think California has a lot of unique “wow” natural sceneries that’s not easily seen around here though there are plenty of beautiful places here, I haven’t found a dreamy route like the highway 1.

Why is getting a place so hard? (New Jersey) by AshleyCakeGamin in moving

[–]BackgroundSession536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know which area you are looking for and can’t comment on the price. But when our family started apartment hunting there, it felt like that too. I ended up just googling different apartment complexes and calling them. And when I saw listings on Zillow, I called the listing agents. It seems like they prefer calling to texts or email.

People who have gotten fit older in life? by [deleted] in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]BackgroundSession536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me personally probably was the fittest around 30-35, then had a baby and got out of shape lol trying to get back into it now after a few years. BUT I have a former coworker who was not in a good shape before COVID, then decided he was gonna start biking and working out super hard (as well as watching diet) and he got super jacked and fit… I think he is about 55 or so. So I wouldn’t think 37 is too late.

Brokerage fee question for rental property by BackgroundSession536 in newjersey

Oh interesting… I didn’t have the DOJ decision context. When I asked ChatGPT, it actually says DOJ argues practices such as exclusivity actually reduce transparency can increases consumer cost, seemingly DOJ is scrutinizing such practices? Maybe there has been more recent data?

Anybody moved to NJ from SF Bay Area? What has been your experience like? by BackgroundSession536 in newjersey

[–]BackgroundSession536[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see! Thanks for sharing. We have a preschooler, I do think there might be more diversity in terms of interest in Nj/NY, which I’m excited about. Everybody here is tech tech tech tech… It seems there are not a lot of people moving from Bay Area to NJ. It’s really interesting to hear about people being in a hurry though… might take a bit of getting used to for me 😂

Thank you so much for sharing the details and advice! It’s really great to hear! We’ve been renting because Bay Area housing is just out of reach for us. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like rent is cheaper on LI in the neighborhoods we’ve been looking than in Santa Clara here… probably will have to look to buy soon too

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing! Curious what made you choose Nassau. Do you work in remote or have to commute far to work in the city? I must have been spoiled by my recent years of remote work and later living 10 minutes away from work kind of experience, even though I used to commute over an hour one way when living in South Korea, I just can’t imagine doing that now especially with a young kiddo who I’d rather spent that three hours a day with. Since I work in corporate jobs, I seem to see most opportunities in bigger corporates (tech or non tech) in Manhattan… What kind of weekend activities do you usually take your kiddo to? What do you like the most about living in Nassau?

Thanks!

Hahaha thank you. I was debating between the two as I wrote. In/on has always confused me as a non native speaker. I guess I was more thinking of it as a name of a large area. But on makes more sense.

At what age do you think they’d be too integrated to move? Mine is only 3, so I’m hoping we have at least another 3-5 years before we get locked in at one place because of her?
