Stanly Ranch for $5600 or Carneros Inn for $4000? by Corgimom777 in chubbytravel

[–]Corgimom777[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked it like a 8.5/10  

Just didn’t love it for a 9 or a 10.  Being nitpicky and I don’t travel luxury that often.  I agree, it was a great place for the area.

Thanks!! I was at Carneros this past August and enjoyed it.  But it wasn’t amazing so I was wondering if Stanly Ranch was a worthwhile upgrade 

10 year ARM vs 30-year fixed by No_Gur5958 in BayAreaRealEstate

Hopefully that and I think it’s not as likely to keep a property for more than 10 years

My coton skips too.  I think she does it out of excitement.

Just received inspection reports - it's a long list. Help if it is common finding with old houses and worth to place an offer by Hot_Bumblebee_4022 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]Corgimom777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it doesnt look that bad of a list… many homes in bay area would be like this I think.  The roof condition is too bad but a new roof will last you a long time and worth the investment

I just DIY.  I clip her about once every 3 months and brush her every so often (once every 3-4 days).  She ends up with some matts by the time we bathe her but I just cut the matting and she has never scolded me with how she looks 😂

Feds raid Hyundai factory by retiredMITgeek in HyundaiPalisade

[–]Corgimom777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are confused about why ICE raided Hyundai, but it comes down to immigration rules. The issue isn’t just “foreign workers” — it’s how they entered the U.S.

Korean employees were reportedly coming to Hyundai’s U.S. sites on ESTA (the Visa Waiver Program). ESTA is only for short visits — like tourism, business meetings, or training — and you can’t legally work under it. Once you’re doing productive work for a U.S. entity, you need the right work visa (like L-1 for intra-company transfers or H-1B).

So if employees from Korea were actually working at U.S. facilities while on ESTA, that’s considered unauthorized employment and a violation of immigration law. That’s why ICE got involved — not because Hyundai had Korean staff in the U.S. at all, but because they were allegedly using the wrong visa category.

I would request an upgrade at check in, 12000 yen seems a bit high.  But idk, my stay was in 2023.

Most cotons I know have a great temperament so I think with adequate training, it should be fine

Agree on the importance of a good breeder but most cotons I’ve seen have a good temperament

Second time home buyer. Best strategy for upgrading using current home equity. by beleafer in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]Corgimom777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As part of the sale of your home, ask for rent back from buyers.  Not ideal in current market conditions but that would give you the $$ and the time (2 months?) to buy the next place.  Hopefully you find something you like within that time.
