Inland Empire (Kaboom!)

No, the bungalow has a kitchen....a little one, but fine for part time living.



The house that Maliburenter posted is the one without the kitchen.

Our Dearest Trooper -



We were checking in on your progress on this site that you pointed out to us, just to see how things were going for you. (You know you don't call nearly often enough any more.)

Wanted to let you know that we are thankful that you talked us out of buying that home that we wanted earlier in the year. It has indeed proven to be a very well-informed decision.



I hope you know that we love you unconditionally, but if you buy a house this year, we will be forced to disown you.



xoxo,

Your Mom and Dad
 
But <em>Dad</em>,



You are looking in an overpriced market! Palm Springs has dropped like a rock and this thing is below rental parity for me......even with the extra A/C and gas cost..... heck, it's almost at it's 2003 purchase price, my offer would be for 225K.



And, and, and........ok. I'll wait.



sniffle.

[quote author="irvinesinglemom" date=1219608872]Ummm, so what is an R-2 lot? Does it come with half of a little rotund robot?</blockquote>


Actually, it comes with a Roomba. ;-P



Really though, R-2 means that you can build more than one structure. R-1 or residential one lots are the typical SFR lots, where as R-2 or residential two lots you can build another structure and rent it out.

On that note, here's the IE house I grew up in, still on the market after forever, listed at a discount of 56% off peak price:

Ah, I can picture Ipo when he was young riding in circles in that driveway with his IPOPLAYA license plate attached to his tricycle. :cheese:

It's fun to reminisce, isn't it? Here is the Long Beach apartment building where I lived until I was 7. Dad owned it and rented the other units to senior citizens. Brings back lots of memories.

More like picturing me working on my lots of cars and trucks in that driveway... I used to do window tint and car stereo systems (made the cabinets myself) for kids the last couple of years of high school. I probably lowered 10+ vehicles on that very concrete. As that was long before the birth of IPOP, back then I was just plain ole "Skooch" of Social Minis :)



You can't ride a bike, trike, or whatever in Berdoo. If the heat or smog doesn't kill you first, someone will on a drive by...
 
Hello again



I haven't been posting for a while due to being busy and removed from all this stuff. However I couldn't resist this one for all of the nine-oh-niners:

Dear gawd... I don't think I need to make fun of you for that one, it's worse than making fun of yourself. No, no... even panda will make fun of you for that one. Hold on, I gotta PM tenmagnet about this, he will fall out of his chair laughing.

What a funny coincidence! We call one of our (several) cats "Skootch". I thought it was an original!

I have no shame re: my IE days. Heck, I lived in Berdoo, no bad nickname can hold a candle to that! Have to thank my HS GF for that lovely moniker. Sadly, it was airbrushed on to the back window of my truck for all the homies and vatos to have fun with...
