Hello All,     Just moved to Saint Petersburg this past weekend.  I started late last year in Wholesaling, and was lucky enough to have 3 deals fall into my lap in the first few months.  I began working on my RE Licen...

I actually grew up in Reston and after getting pretty burned out, I transplanted myself to Carlsbad some 16 years ago.

Excited to be a forum member! Thanks! 

@Alex Franks- transplanted Long Islander also (Lynbrook)...hear ya loud and clear...sometimes I think I'd give up my left nut for a bag of White Castles...I'll try to calm the fix by hitting Krystal but just not the same.

I am also a transplant from Long Island, via other routes, living here now.  

These transplants are used to property values with a price per square for of over $375 (OC CA) and when they see what $117 (Collin TX) per square foot buys you in Texas they are amazed.Until we have an equalization of the property values, or the monthly payments homeowners are making, we will not see a slowdown for areas which are doing well and continuing to develop (I know this is a broad statement but I am still expecting people to make good decisions and buy good deals in good areas, there are definitely bad areas in Collin County and it is hard to find good deals).My main concern in this equation is we are leaving out is the property tax rates and assessments.

I am a south Louisiana transplant who’s lived in Atlanta for 14 years.

I'm a Chicago transplant myself, new to the area.  

Welcome @Bartow Church  I'm originally from upstate, now transplanted to Charlotte.

I don't profess to know a lot about Chicago neighborhoods since I'm a transplant but am interested in how others feel, esp. my Chi town peeps!
