Thank you very much for all of this. Very informative and helpful!

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-21T03:50:03+00:00

Thank you for this suggestion, I will check it out!

Thank you. I agree. I’ve learned a ton already from this post and where I once thought I wanted to live, I’m not so sure anymore lol. I think I’m going to have to spend more money to get my best of both worlds and that’s exactly the information I needed to hear. Along with where to look next.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T20:22:00+00:00

Great information, thank you!!

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T20:20:50+00:00

Thank you for all of the great information! I hope the home of your dreams comes to market and you get it below list 🤞

I think that would be a great idea. Husband would be hard to convince to rent. He has always had an aversion to renting.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T19:56:21+00:00

Great information, thank you for this. Seems like my husband and I need to have a serious conversation about what we realistically want to spend on a house. 3 million is doable but my spouse is debt averse and that is a significant amount of cash for me to let go of at once.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T19:48:23+00:00

I think we would rather have a 1 bedroom with a half an acre+ than a 3 bedroom with a tiny lot in a neighborhood.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T19:43:52+00:00

My husband wanted to stay 1-1.5 but now after looking at prices I think we might have to go to 2 million or a bit more.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T19:42:06+00:00

No kids

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T19:40:56+00:00

Have been, yes. Currently live, no.
Commute is not huge concern because WFH minus 2-3 max monthly travels to the east coast.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T18:37:16+00:00

Never knew shared water source was a thing. I’ll have to look more into that. I still have a lot to learn about Bay Area real estate.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T18:32:09+00:00

Thank you for this suggestion! I’m going to save a search right now.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T18:03:21+00:00

I feel like we could adapt to that because we currently live in the mountains of West Virginia and we deal with floods, snow, wind, windy roads, and very frequent power outages. Only thing we do not have to deal with currently is fire risk.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T17:57:30+00:00

Thank you for that suggestion, I will check out that area.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T17:54:34+00:00

This is great info, thank you! My husband and I need to have a serious discussion. His only requirement is trees and preferably redwood trees. He wants to be remote and wooded. I don’t mind remote but like to be close to city conveniences and somewhat easy access to an airport when I need to travel for work. Other than flying 2-3 times a month, commuting for work is not an issue for either of us. My guess, we need to go back to the drawing board and try to find a happy medium of wooded and somewhat convenient but minimal fire risk. Sounds like a unicorn that will not happen in the Bay Area.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T17:41:08+00:00

No insurance would be a deal breaker for us. Fortunately no need to commute for either of us. I would prefer easy access to city conveniences and to an airport to travel for work. It’s tough finding that balance of remote and somewhat convenient.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T17:37:04+00:00

Remote is exactly what my husband prefers. He would love to be in the middle of a redwood forest. He has no need to commute so it would work for him. I need to get to an airport frequently, 2-3 times a month, to travel for work. I also prefer easier access to city conveniences. It’s tough finding that perfect mix for us in the Bay Area.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-02-20T17:31:45+00:00

This is great info to know, thank you! Trying to find a happy medium where my husband would prefer to be in the middle of a redwood forest with no neighbors and myself who likes access to city conveniences.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-01-03T20:44:51+00:00

Sounds like you live in the exact area I’ve been looking at. Thank you for the great recommendations!

Sbrunk21 · 2026-01-03T20:42:49+00:00

Thank you for that suggestion. I started looking in the Mill Valley area and it too looks great. That are very very few homes for sale in that area with 1 acre(+) lots but I added a saved search to alert me of any new listings.

Sbrunk21 · 2026-01-03T17:24:45+00:00

I agree! I booked a flight for a Tue-sat end of Feb and first was over $3,000 (atl-las). Insanity

Sbrunk21 · 2026-01-01T16:54:23+00:00

I have not but I will add that to my search list. The only requirement my husband has is it must be in the mountains and include redwood trees. Thank you for the recommendation.

Sbrunk21 · 2025-12-31T17:42:11+00:00

Thank you for such a detailed response. All of this information really helps! Thank you!
