My choices would be if prices are no issue as in you can spend $1.2 million+ on a single family home: San Jose (10% appreciation historically, 44% in the last 3 years, link below), Santa Clara (both near Silicon Valley with major tech companies), San Mateo.

I'm Tania Clara from CT, passionate about real estate investing for the past 2 years.

My preferred areas are Santa Clara, Union City and Milpitas.

Quote from @Clara Arroyave: Quote from @Bat-Erdene Chagnaa: Does anyone have a rental agreement for pad split or room rental?

Area like Cupertino,Los Gatos to Stanford is just a shadow of the American economy where tech titans is just moving from one zip code to another zip code in one geographical area (like apple in cupertino to nvidia in santa clara), these companies make real estate skyrockets although, in term of statistic, the population is decreasing by a lot.  

it's the other way around, it's going to triple the home price (and restaurant rent)  near Santa Clara's Nvidia headquarters.
