To this day, I'm still surprised that my car didn't roll or got it totalled. I was real lucky, and I know God was watching over me that night.

Another one calls it quits eh? hehehe... I came from Chicago too... i gotta say i've been seeing a lot of Illinois plates since we moved out here 3 yrs ago. Loving it! Chicago is nice... but it was time for a change. I do miss the food there...(Leona's, Pita INN, Giordano's, Edwardo's, Greektown, Chinatown, Taco Burrito King, Kampai, WHITE CASTLE, Brown's Chicken, Portillos (Closest one is in Buena Park, CA), Steak n Shake --- just to name a few. BUT we have Rosati's and Dunkin' Donuts here in Vegas now.

BTW... yer sig pic looks like it was taken at Streets of Woodfield... GOOD TIMES!

Marco, everytime I look at your signature picture it looks like you have a side skirts on your car, or that just an illusion? I'm pretty sure you have the appearance package, right?

I have been checking out general prices at craigslist.org around las vegas, nv. It's much cheaper and spacious than here in Chicago but the job salary is much less there.

I hope you mean that's your down payment If you happen to come now while the housing market is in a slump you can live in a desirable area for that money (small home) but if you wait to long you will need more money, figure on driving a distance to town or live in a less desirable area. I have lived in Vegas for 40 years and contrary to what your fellow midwest member says, the finest restaurants and the best chiefs have invested here due to the tourism. Now the favorites for junk food may not be here but you will find we have good ones here also you just gotta know where to look. Don't know what you do for a living but if you post it I'll try to let you know what the market for your skills is. If you have a gambling problem or a drinking problem it may be best to stay away as it's available 24/7 here and has become a big problem for new arrivals.

Elara has not answered me yet, but she will. I thought it was a done deal when I left for one of my mini vacations, got back and see he's still off.

Now that's the area normally considered "Green Valley" area of Henderson. There are a lot of places in Hooterville (Henderson) that are nice but not Green Valley.

Craigslist is not a good place to look for anything in Vegas. There is so much "scamming" going on with the list that it's almost useless. Normally $200,000 would not be in a desirable area, and salaries are not as high as the midwest and east but you need to know that there are no state income taxes and property taxes are about 1/4 of what you now pay.

Give it a couple of weeks and it should be perfict for a BBQ

Oh yes think of all the boobies but even as good would be understanding how to make the correct investments.

Yes you should also get the seller to pick up the points, closing costs and doc fees. Use caution on your loan docs and type of loan. Should be able to go conventional with 10%. Get your own agent to help you and not the sellers agent. I have some nice houses for sale but not in that range. I figure this slow period will stay up at least untill the election and then depending on who is elected will get worse or better.
