So I have been on CL the last 3 days looking for a new place to live when I found....

Your crazy man don't rent out a 3k a month house...

You and your girl should figure out a city you guys want to live that isn't overly expensive. A big enough city where there's shit to do if you wanted to go out often. A city that's within 1-2 hours plane ride from a favorite vacation spot (like vegas or something). Rent a $1000 apartment (or house, apartment if you want to be in the city) in one of these lower cost cities (all you need is two rooms right? one for sleeping and one for your office). Then use that 2k a month you would be spending on renting a house, to go on little vacations every month.

Or you could do the smart thing and save that money or reinvest it, but I know how it is being young wanting to live that millionaire lifestyle. At least doing it this way will give you a chance to get out and do shit every month instead of blowing a lot of money renting out a house that's way too big for you.

B, he just described Coeur d'Alene to a T. You know, where I told you to move when you first decided to GTFO of that west Florida swamp shithole you were living in.
 


Good enough for him to play Starcraft on and run his webinars, so I doubt it's all that bad from a connection standpoint. Can't comment to the bandwidth issue.
It's not great, but it is not terrible. I was spoiled when I lived in the city before.

I think he means internet piped in via radio waves off a cell tower, not actually using his ATT 4G service.
This, but my service is about 10x better than yours. I get 700mb/s down and 70 mb/s up at peak.

What's the average speed and what's the name of your ISP? I'd like to see if there's something similar to them in my area.
 
this is what you really need...

cheap, fun, access to anything you need and you will never regret it.
 
Not sure what CO income tax is but CA income tax is ass-rape high. If you like Vegas, the zero state income tax is nice. I've lived there before. Too much white trash and illegals there for me.
 
Not to sound like a dick (okay I will sound like a dick) but the reason most rental housing is not luxury ie looks shitty is that tenants are pigs and are protected in a lot of states/provinces by really stupid landlord/tenant regulations.

Like if you have a really nice house, the last thing you want to do is rent it out. Because there's a good chance that people moving it won't take of care it and quite possibly trash it.

For example, I am living in a rental here in Vancouver while my house is being renovated. The carpets reek of cigarette smoke, the plastic covers on the electrical outlets have been ripped off, the baseboard heating doesn't work. I could go on and on.

I knew the tenants. They packed the house with adoptive kids and their own kids who obviously just didn't give two bleeps about the house. When they finally left, I had to beg to rent the place (trying finding a four bedroom in central vancouver, especially one in my neighbourhood) because they were going to renovate and sell it off for big dollars.

I was briefly a landlord myself for about 18 months and totally got tired of the bullshit. I had tenants ask me to do thousands of dollars in renos to the basement suite while they were paying $800 a month, utilities included. Like seriously fuck off.

Oh well I guess that was a rant. Thanks for letting me share.

P.S. One reason why nobody builds smaller luxury houses is because outside of kitchen/bathroom, square footage is cheap. What is expensive is the storm/sewer/water planning and the endless round of inspectors for electrical, plumbing, structural, earthquake, blah blah blah. I suspect the difference in cost between building a two bedroom, two bath one kitchen home and a five bedroom is way less than you would think.

That shits only an issue if you live in budget housing or don't have a fucking clue. Seriously, no heating? What the fuck are you living in?

You can absolutely rent a fantastic place, just have to find it, and have the money for it - which given that you don't have heat or electrical covers, you don't seem to.
 
You could try northern Idaho or western Montana.

And ya, you will want more than one satellite provider if you go satellite.

Sounds like you are a nasty skank living in a shithole. I hope you're not paying anymore than $700/mo for your dumpster...
 
I hope this thread is just a typical internet fantasy thread...

Have you even paid a power bill on over 3,000 sq ft? Especially if you're security conscious and need the outside lights on all night in certain areas... And the central air? Fuck me... That's at least another $500 a month right there.

Because renting and paying utilities on 4,000 sq ft when you're just living with the girl like the one you've been posting is just retarded.

I mean no disrespect towards her, but you've posted enough photos and videos of her (and that silly haircut her's... yeah I said it... big whoop wanna fight about it?) to make it clear to me that she's not of the Bocabitch persuasion. For my non-Floridian friends.... she's not the type of high-maintenance, gold-digging type of woman who demands a certain lifestyle...

And considering the furniture you have in your rental now, it's obvious she's not exactly Candy Spelling. Have you even imagined how much it takes to properly furnish over 4,000 sq ft? Or how lonely it feels in a place that big when you're home alone?

Now, don't get me wrong if you've posted this thread to inflate your e-penis and ego congratulations, I'm sure some of the idiots are impressed.

In the real world though, where people attempt to make prudent decisions it'll make more sense to rent a place four times smaller and save that money while you focus on building your credit profile. Buy a home, heck buy a rental, do anything you can to prepare for the future.
 
I have bad credit, otherwise I'd buy.

And yes, they are too big. The issue is, I wanna...

I can get a 2-3 bedroom in the mountains but there will be n....

I want the interior quality that I have now, only in the mountains so it's kind of a weird situation.

Oh god, delaying gratification and exhibiting patience...

What a dilemma.
