Why, you ask?

I’m very very glad we bought our lake home in CDA (and house in Spokane) when we did.

And I’m disappointed we waited too long. Wasn’t my choice to wait but gotta make the other half happy. I think we may have missed the window to move to ID until the real estate crashes—which it will inevitably do at some point. Thing is will we be happy enough in WY or MT to not bother moving again? Strong possibility of this happening.

Good for you, Misty! But WSJ requires a subscription to access the article.

Wowzers...
A 47% increase in a year!

That's what was happening to Cupertino in the 80s!

CDA is not only quite expensive, it is quite crowded. You might not be able to get onto the gorgeous hiking trails because the parking lots are jammed packed full and there is nowhere to park.

We're sadly seeing that here in SE Idaho. If I want to hike one of my favorite trails with my dogs, I typically do it in October when it's 40 degrees and slightly damp. In fact, we drove past yesterday around 2 in the afternoon and it was packed! Don't people work anymore?

The work from home crowd can stop working when they're done with what's required that day. That's my experience when I was working from home here in Idaho from April to November. If I got done with what was needed, and nothing was pending, then I was free for the rest of the day. That was great and I'd be outside for a couple extra hours most afternoons.

My hope is that someday soon that companies realize they are only getting 4 - 6 hours worth of work from their teleworking people. Then they decide if you want your high dollar job that you need to come back into the office and give us 8 hours a day. Even if you are sitting around the office doing nothing, you are at least interacting with your coworkers... not your spouse, kids, dog, etc. Once the telework cycle reverses the housing market might correct. That, or large employers will offer those telework jobs to India and the Philippines. Heck, there seem to be a lot of Nigerian princes, and overseas social security agents that know how to use the phone and internet too. Maybe give them something legitimate and they might stop trying to scam me, lol.
