whats going on Haven't been to active here lately or local lately due to buying a house and a UCI coming here to Luke. Finally almost done with all the house shopping, paperwork, etc. I purchased a new construction house out in Avondale in Arizona and finally get the keys and sign the escrow on Monday. Never spent 9k dollars so fast in my life and it wasnt on the car 
. Furniture and odds and ends for the house add up quickly!. Anyways should be around more once i settle in next week
and of course the good spot
I got the quickcrete and that for the floor so it will be midnight blue with a gloss finish.

edit:
I dont know if cali is like az but they are putting foreclosures that are in decent shape priced low and then after they have been on the market for a week open it up to a week worth of undisclosed bidding so they get more for the houses. if you and someone else are the high bidder they let you know to make a counteroffer, but again you dont know what your comp counteroffers. I got tired of the games and searching so new build was 100x less of a hastle
i have an offer on a foreclosure house and an offer on a short sale house... both of them are still open still waiting to hear from them... you can't offer what they are asking sometimes most of them you have to offer atleast 10-15K more to "try" to get it. damn 700 a month is a stealllll 
im looking at houses that are in 330-360K so my payments are up there! your rate is fucken great the lowest it has been here is 5%

Because cali is expensive. Honestly I would look into buying a house out of state because a house that you can buy here for 360k you can buy for 130k in other states. The only difference is its not in CA the sate that will soon ban cars and everyone will have to ride bicycles.
the sate that will soon ban cars and everyone will have to ride bicycles.This is why I am looking into finishing my mechanical engineering degree, then I will be looking to get out of cali and move to somewhere near by maybe vegas, phoenix or heck even texas, I want somewhere with warm/hot weather somewhat decent altitudes and not have to worry about snow, and not Cali.
Congrats Jeff! I'm jealous!!
I'll be done with school in about 7 weeks... then we are moving back to CA. We wanna buy a house, but gotta do the rent thing for about a year since you have to have job history for a year prior to buying a home

That was the shocker for me when I bought my house new. I was like "What, no ******* drapes? No shower curtain? No garage opener? No rear landscaping?"
I lived at Lowes for a month.
Nice Jeff. I've gotta say, putting the epoxy on my garage floor was the best thing I ever did to my house. It's sooo worth it. Another tip if you hadn't planned to do it. You should get some of the foam insulation panels and insulate your garage door. I've never regretted doing it to my garage. It stays so much cooler in the summer.
