A commute from Duvall to Redmond wouldn't be too bad. You'd never have to hit any hwys. Cross the valley on 124th. Snek up to Trilogy Pkwy. As counter intuitive as it seems, go out the back of Trilogy on 133rd all the way to Willows. Ask Pablo. That was his commute for years.
Thing is land/houses out that way are crazy expensive. About what young old kim said: $450-500k houses out that way (Woodinville, Redmond, Duvall) five years ago can now go for up to a million.five or more.

Unless you have a bankroll of cash I wish you good luck finding a house even in North Bend. I understand the market is cooling down a little, but unless you have a need to own the property right now I suggest you try to rent and wait. The market will come down. So you're telling me ... lol free housing , live in GH, commute 4 hours round trip each day lol wouldn't necessarily go that route, but people are still outbidding each other for houses out there right now. I'd say if you can bide your time wait it out because you don't want to pay 500k for a trailer on the side of I-90 only to have the bottom fall out a year or two from now. All depends on what you can afford.

Ever thought about Chehalis, Centralia, La Center, or anywhere in Clark County to find a jobby-job down there?

Bring a few KAC goodies, at the current prices you can probably trade a couple uppers and a Triple Tap for a house.

Legally, you can't bring in any "hi-cap" mags unless you owned them when you lived in WA before. I hope you've got a damned good reason to come back. Housing-wise, you could probably just arrange a swap with someone here who's looking to get out.

Tabby… your woman coming with you? She know about WA weather? Lol.
If you want some property and an hour commute, your radius is decent. Look at Sultan, carnation area if you want to try and snag land.
What you didn’t say was what your budget is. As others have said, market is funky right now.

Have you driven on I-4 on a Friday? If so, you deserve a fucking medal for both surviving and being brave or crazy enough! Man haha I'm alive! I'm working for Knight's Armament, and yes I have driven through I-4 at ALL times of day/night. It's a mess no matter what. In laws live in Lakeland. I'm looking at working for BE MEYERS... I like Matt. Good dude. Try Snoqualmie Valley or Monroe area. He's a great guy, I'm looking at those areas now... I appreciate your insight !

Sultan and Carnation were both areas we were looking at, we'd like to stay under 700k but it's so crazy... I know since I'm a disabled veteran I get some taxes written off too for property and I heard those are astronomical currently.

They've never left and they've been there since I left in 2019 so I should be okay.. hopefully. That being said, hahah I wish I could find someone swapping out! The damn good reason is BE Meyers... : plus... we need the help with our 6 month baby and 5 year old daughter. My in laws live 2 hours away and we dont have help, but we'd have TONS of help if we moved back to Washington, primarily Gig Harbor.

Don't rule out outer Whatcom county areas. Just a thought. We need the brothers.
