Well, after some research, we are ready to make the "huge" change in lifestyle. No actions taken yet other than research. But here is the decision at hand.
1. Long term residents of Los Angeles and San Diego. Have lived for years in a typical ranch style home in Rancho Palos Verdes and more recently a highrise rental apartment in San Diego.
2. We absolutely love the freedom of rental and especially highrise with stunning views of downtown and bay. And walking out the front door with not a care in the world.
SO, we are on the cusp of selling our home in RPV, and the current tenants want it badly. So "pre-sale" pretty much.
We loved Seattle and the Aspira is a brand new apartment building with views of Lake Union, we found a condo for rent at 1521 on 2nd Ave and several other condos for rent downtown. All in the $1500 to $2000 range.
We also found a condo in Marian Blue which is adjacent to American Airlines arena in Miami for $1500.
We also found a condo in the Ritz Carlton in Denver for $945.
OK, the question is really: "Would you sell a 1960's home for $3.5mil-$4mil and plan to live your old age in condos all over the place without the burden of home upkeep as you get to the WTFAIDT age?" [Hint. Why the...doing this]
We are leaning hard.
