Mountain View, CA
Hey BP,
A friend of mine is moving out to the bay area right out of college. The rental market looks similar to what it is here in the DC market. That is, it makes more sense to buy than it does to rent.
She has a room mate already so would need 2 bedroom minimum, $3,000/month max budget. What are your thoughts on whether to rent or buy in the area between Mountain View and Foster City? What resources do you recommend I look into for a more in depth analysis of the specific market?
