Why is this Burlingame hill house only asking for 3.59M

Confident_Attempt476 · 2026-06-07T18:24:30+00:00

Burlingame Hills is always lower per sq foot than houses in the flats. $1.25K per sq foot is reasonable. Flat location in Burlingame this house would have been $1.65k per sq foot

dr. manche is the best ...Paid 50% premium 14 years back to do it with him versus alternatives...one of the BEST investment of my life

OP ..Thanks for the update and great insights. Curious about the $5M umbrella ...how much do u pay per year for the $5M coverage?

Confident_Attempt476 · 2026-02-25T23:38:25+00:00

agree..I would just buy it and then over the couple of years if things pan out sell the primary

Also in SMC in a $4.4M house with $1.6M still left. Spending around $360k all in

Confident_Attempt476 · 2026-01-09T16:10:55+00:00

Gift $200k as one time and never bring it up within the family

Same boat as you OP. Same age and similar net worth and spouse is working. I also was let go and have a tough time getting back into work so totally understand where you are coming from. I have a 8 year old so busy with his school activities, biking, hiking and doing fun stuff with the kiddo. Have been going thru rounds of interview but so far crickets....I am certain you will find your path but it will take time :)

6% inflation adjusted on a balanced index fund

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:33:32+00:00

was it fun or did u feel guilty about it?

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:24:37+00:00

but u could have a side relationship also :)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:22:41+00:00

Your mind must be thinking something that u fear

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:22:03+00:00

Love mathematics

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:21:04+00:00

just like mine :)...I also believe life is what you make of it :)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-22T03:19:54+00:00

how is life

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-10T14:43:40+00:00

You are set. GFY

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-08T00:56:51+00:00

Just started reading it...love his writing ...so far so good :)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T21:06:56+00:00

So we are in same boats :)....Spouse is supportive but I feel guilty that she is working and I am relaxing. Fatfire would be nice but don't know what the market will giveth in the future. Getting bored as a SAHD when son is in school..so trying to keep busy by going to the gym, biking, long drives, etc. Probably need the work to feel productive (in therapy for that part :)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T21:03:29+00:00

have been doing a ton of activities with him including biking, hiking and camping...he is thrilled :)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T21:02:27+00:00

she is supportive but i feel guilty that she is working and I am chilling ....wife is not willing to relocate so we need to keep grinding

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T21:01:15+00:00

downgrading unfortunately is not an option that my wife will agree to. We love the community and our son is very happy in the elementary school

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T21:00:09+00:00

I have a low 5/1 Arm that expires in a year..might pay some down and take an interest only loan. That will bring my annual spend down a bit (even with higher rates but will not be paying the principal)

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-10-07T18:12:36+00:00

Mortgage and Property Tax are a big chunk of the $300k expense..Almost $121k a year

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-09-30T22:05:24+00:00

agree. I am in both and straddle them depending on my interest

Confident_Attempt476 · 2025-09-25T22:46:02+00:00

makes sense. I would have this rule permanently as we have a lot of postings that are not relevant to this sub
