buy a caravan
Good luck, no such thing in California.
theres a few different ways. first of all save your money…….and then begin looking, theres nothing worst than not being ready to move on a deal when it presents itself. talk to older people who may be looking to move or even die. gross i know but its a fact of life, many let their properties go for less than market value or don’t know the full value if property in the current market. the obituaries, divorce courts, drug addicts/crack heads and individuals that are going to be sentenced in court and may need to liquidate some property fast. good luck
nothing in california is affordable
Since you are a Yahoo user, why not try:

You can also try Craigslist at:

Just start looking in the price range you can afford.
Good luck with your search.
Right now is the beginning of the market down swing. Over the years I’ve watched peak and drop cycle occur about every 10+ years and it’s starts with foreclosures, % rising. Your income would strap you to the house for a longer period if you buy at the beginning of the down stroke unless a real good deal is discovered. Don’t be sold. With both eyes wide open and armed with all the info I’m sure the right decision will be made. Now with the gasoline going up those sort of things have to be taken into account and I’m sure this fact added to existing foreclosures. Get a copy of the ‘current’ multiple listings and find a Realtor that is willing to go the extra mile with you. Good luck
