What...they don’t want to sign up for an interest only mortgage or spend a million dollars on a postage stamp lot and a sugar shack?
Can you blame them...I sure don’t.
I certainly don’t blame them, I spent nearly a year in the middle of San Francisco Bay fifty two years ago. The city had some attractions then but nothing to make me want to go back after I left the Navy. To live the way I live now anywhere in that area and I mean living as close as possible to EXACTLY the same way in all respects would require a very high six figure annual income and probably a seven figure annual income. That is assuming that you could find eight acres on a small river within a fifteen minute drive of a major medical center, shopping and a university and easily accessible to two interstate highways within ten minutes drive. I would bet that you could not find such a place and even if you could it would not be for sale and certainly not for less than several million dollars. Yes, there are other attractions there that do not exist where I live but nothing that I cannot easily live without. I only wish I could sell my property for what it would be priced at in that area.
