I see not one mention of home flipping, unless somewhere in this thread is mention of big investors flipping homes by another name. Radio is inundated by ads offering to buy homes in a 10 minute process,(or some other short interval) sight unseen. And as an average Joe, how else am I able to make $250,000 tax-free? The "desirable" places to live are near the ocean, where there are mountain ranges, probably due to earthquake faults (how soon we forget) and dangerous winds, plus the dry summers. Most of the Central Valley is cheap, for a reason/reasons. The other side of the valley is both mountainous and wooded. But low density, because most of the jobs and culture are by the coast.
