New Not too shabby
Compare to Sausalito - Average home price around $600k and homes are on the small shack side - probably a 2 bedroom 1300 sq ft affair. I beat the system by living off land.

So you're paying around 1/3 the cost of a home per year, same job should be $200k here. More likely, the developers can be got for slightly over $100k which means we are getting hosed in this part of the world.

Still, the scenery is a little better here.

I just like to point out that numbers in a vacuum are just that - numbers. I think wages should be advertised in housing units. Its telling that only 3 percent of people living in the bay area can afford to buy a home. Actually, its criminal.

New Based on your description
My house would cost about a million dollars.

4 bedrooms w/ 2 bedrooms rather large, big enough
for king size bed and comfortable spacing around.
walk in cedar closet.
laundry room
2 1/2 bath
den
eat in kitchen
formal dining room and living room
basement
2 car garage

It is about a 45 minute drive to the Jersey shore.
Crappy waves, though.
1.5 hour drive to the Poconos.


Now are there any qualified takers for the jobs I mentioned?
New Based on your....
description of the place to work... I'd do it in a heartbeat... but...

I am in a slow area myself picking up the slack other can't do.

In the last month, I have cleared just under $25K after material and service costs, but before taxes and such, in side jobs...

I have finally gotten my reputation where I want it... and could actually lose my job and survive very well.
