My area (Silicon Valley) has so much competition.So I would say, I would have jumped at the opportunity to work with the second caller.

Finished it off with GE white silicone caulking on the seams....came out beautiful and should last for years!

And not to far from Silicon Valley etc...

How to buy $2M house in San Francisco / Silicon Valley?

I own in the East Bay, and have some other real estate interests in Silicon Valley.

For context, I live in Silicon Valley, so any reasonably priced properties will probably be at least 90 minutes away.

I was an employee at a large silicon valley company and went on a trip to Louisiana to build part of a house for a victim of hurricane Katrina as a community service and realized this is what I want to do as my career. as the years progressed as a carpenter, I heard of other carpenters buying a home working on it their self and making profits.

There is a completely different mentality - I will speak for Memphis specifically - when compared to an area like Silicon Valley.  

You wont find anything in silicon valley that cashflows positive.

San Francisco will always be a desired place to build a technology company, whether it be silicon semiconductors or web services.
