You have to stop almost to a crawl, squint and hope to see your intersecting turn-road overhead sigh before somebody slams into your ass while you're quickly moving to the right into a turn lane. <br /><br />Even the poorest of rural communities have signs posted a hundred yards in advance to notify you of the upcoming intersection that you're looking for. <br /><br />Why can't one of the busiest corridors in this state adopt that policy?<br /><br />If you're confused, I give you, for example, you're headed east on Lakeland from 55 and hope to turn south on Treetops but have no idea where Treetops is (if you're a casual visitor headed to the surgery center). No way in hell you see the overhead sign until you're in the wrong lane or somebody has busted the ass end of your car.

That’s why you don’t have to enter a code or have anything special to get through the gates at reunion, you just stop at the line and they automatically open. Same applies if they have a guard gate.

They pat things. Don't ask me what they pat, but I did follow along. <br /><br />Seriously, and trust me on this, any decent doctor (or even lawyer) can easily afford a 200-500 thousand dollar home. Several, in fact. And at the lower end of that range, just about anyone who makes more than about 50K a year with interest rates in 3% range. Where it will get interesting is when the myriad costs that come along with home ownership (like taxes and maintenance) and mortgages (insurance, particularly) get repriced to reflect the increased value of these houses and the goods and services attendant, but the income and budget of the owners/borrowers doesn't keep pace. It is the same thing all over again, just with a different catalyst. Just because one thinks they can afford the mortgage today doesn't mean they will be able to afford owning the home in 3-5 years. And many of these were bought in the last 2 years...the timebomb is ticking...again.

If your subdivision does not use tax dollars for street maintenance then you can install a gate that only opens to those with granted access.

If both parties have good paying jobs, they will make more combined than the doctor whose wife DOESN'T work. <br /><br />You don't have to be a doctor or a lawyer to have a $500,000 home. Many small business owners make a really nice living. Excellent salespeople make BIG money, especially those in medical related fields. I know people who earn DOUBLE their already decent salary in commissions every year. Ever taken a gander at what preachers of any decent size church are paid? IT salaries are also pretty nice. <br /><br />About 20 years ago I ran across a lady making $750,000 a year working as a financial adviser/stock broker here in town. I was stunned. <br /><br />A conservative rule of thumb is that your mortgage should be no more than 3 times your annual salary. For houses costing $200k to $500k that's a salary range of roughly $65,000 to $170,000... and that's not even taking into consideration down payments. <br /><br />It's not near as hard to have a really nice home as you make it sound... unless your credit sucks, LOL. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-40824799224358213702021-10-28T15:52:04.993-05:002021-10-28T15:52:04.993-05:003:08 You can barely purchase a lot in the pineappl...3:08 You can barely purchase a lot in the pineapple haven of Reunion for that kind of money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-39631101488059847152021-10-28T15:43:01.123-05:002021-10-28T15:43:01.123-05:00White people and their gates, lolWhite people and their gates, lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-40875194842187633982021-10-28T15:32:49.920-05:002021-10-28T15:32:49.920-05:00@3:08
