planning to move to AZ

[whitetop]

Here is a suggestion:

Move to Southeastern Ohio where I live. You could live like a king with 1 million dollars and rent a condo in AZ during the winter months(with global warming only 3-4 months are really bad nowdays).. Land is super cheap, no crime, no traffic or congestion. Our yearly property tax is probaly what you pay in 1-2 months. Guess what? no building permits or inspectors!! Build what you want.

Columbus (Goodguys, Mopar Nats, Springnationals, Jegs etc) is 1.75 hours away and Pittsburgh in the opposite direction in 1 1/2 hours. Summit Racing is 1 1/2 hrs north. Canfield (swap meets and Hot Rod Super nats is 1 1/4 hrs north), Street Machine Nationsls in Lima is 3 hours west. Carlisle PA (swap meets, GM show, MOpar, Ford show etc etc is 4 hours away exactly). Street Rod Nat's in Louisville is 5 hours south. I live in the car Mecca.

A million dollar house in our area is 3-5 million (or more)in AZ or Wa DC.
My wife and I bought 13 acres of nice rolling/level non stripped ground for 63K and it has restrictions (no trailers, house has to be a certain size etc) but still no building permits or inspectors. The land was more because of the restrictions and we are about 2 miles from I-70. A friend has an old farm(42 acres) about 8-10 miles from I-70 and he's asking 120k and it has a very good older barn and newer Morton 35x45 building though the house needs major work-best to tear it down.

The money you save you can buy a Yenko or another copo for that matter. Plus you don't have to check your shoes for scorpions or rattlesnakes before putting them on.
