My wife and I in the end found a house that met all our needs. It's a snug sufficient place for the two of us, our dog -- and my mother-in-law. I recognise what you're thinking.

We thought we would be taking vantage of the real estate bust out here in california, but the bust has had small affect on rent prices. This is where her mother comes into the picture. Anyway, we started our search by driving around the neighborhoods we fancied most -- not including holmby hills, santa monica, or bel air. This worked for in regards to an hour -- until the realness of southern californian real estate prices hit us straight on. One of the basic things you learn when moving to a prominent city is compromise. So, rather than the middle tier neighborhoods, we headed for the for less fare of the valley and santa clarita. As we called every potential property, we were knocked down a peg. One by one, every house was either too little (two bedrooms) or too pricey ($1600 and up). We had exhausted ourselves and the drive-by method. Our next substitute was to register formally as a participant or member with an online house finder service -- for a nominal fee, naturally. We had exhausted our gas, ourselves, and the batteries in our gps tracking scheme. What good is it to possess knowledge on how to get someplace merely to be told you can't afford to live there.
