Just make sure you are READY for the costs of living increase you will get hit with in California.California is NOTHING like Ga when it comes to costs of living.Ga has one of the best costs of living in the nation.

I have just known alot of people that went there and came crawling back on there knees saying the cost to live was very high and that there were always parking issues and you had to worry about getting towed or getting parking tickets all the time.I have persnoally never lived there this is just what I was told by frineds that tried it and moved back.

Well the cost of living in Georgia has definitely continued to raise lately, but it seems like we're still under the mindset that things are still significantly cheaper out there. But I heard the same thing too, and I did some research and have set up a budget that I am hoping will not be too conservative. Have you seen the rents lately in the metro Atlanta area, they are close to becoming comparable to the rents from what I've seen. I've seen two bedrooms downtown for $1,500 - $1,600 easy and they're getting it.

But I appreciate the heads up. I pray my hustle is aggressive enough that I don't ever come crawling back on my knees, that sounds painful ;\)

Good luck and welcome... I am sure we'll be bumping into each other sooner or later. (I'm in Carlsbad). And I am sure you will do just fine, as long as you are willing to go back to basics for a while until you get your new client base developed again. Like I said before, it's REALLY competitive here, but most of the Realtors are pretty nice and the weather is GREAT. Your biggest challenge might be "staying away from the beaches so you can get work done!" I't 70 degrees today and full sun! Too bad I have a final walk-thru and BPOs. Would be a terrific day for golf. Oh yea, did I mention that we have great golf courses too?

I think I'm gonna like Southern Cal, if everyone's anything like the people here, I think I'll be just fine.

Thank you all for being so kind.

I'm from San Diego too. Located in Chula Vista. As people have stated- there are a few big players- then everyone else. Most are pretty nice. I don't know about the best weather- it's normally nice. The weather seems to be changing though- its been cold.. Yeah yeah -I know not cold like other places, but 35-40 is cold when you are used to 67-73.. No sandals or open toe shoes lately- my feet get cold.. \:\( Good luck and welcome!

Do you already have your license? If so we can talk when you get out here (or before). We have about 35 REO listings in San Diego right now and we are getting a ton of sign calls that my agents are having a tough time handling. We are in the central San Diego area about 15 north of Downtown San Diego.
