[quote=Anonymous]We relocated to the Bay Area three years ago. We rented in Emeryville for the first year and I would suggest that you do that too. There are many, many small cities and neighborhoods that are pretty different, so get the feel for which ones you like. Commute times can vary a ton even if you make a relatively small move from one East Bay city to another. 500k will really not get you anything here that's not WAY out in Pittsburg/Oakley, and even those houses are more likely to be 600k. How much is your HHI? If I were you, I would rent for a year or two and save aggressively, and then buy. You're very likely to make a small profit owning a home for five years. [/quote]
