Because we have systematically degraded the trades until no one is now left to go into them and there is nowhere to learn them.

Over the last 30-50 years we have taught the children of the US that people who work in trades are dumb, backwards, castoffs of society. Its been framed as an unrefined uncultured way to succeed. People tried to make it seem that it was low pay and little to gain.

Many mid educational institutions (mid and high schools) geared towards trades have been phased out and shut down.

With the exception a few around the state and even less in other states. When I moved to CA from CT there were none here at all.

That's different. He's gotta fork over 0.75-2.25% of the purchase price to the state of CT. Gain or no gain, pain

Can’t wait to move out(but unfortunately 2 more years)

Everything old and outdated. All changes going very very very slow. I don’t care about higher taxes if state give something back, but CT give nothing back It looks like everything is dying Check how many sign for lease. Business going out, people moving out A lot of abandoned buildings and neighborhoods, ghettos and slums There is no hope here

Are you talking about Federal capital gain tax? If so it has to be lived in for two years and be your primary household at sale and be under the 250/500 thousand threshold. Well it use to be like that. Not an accountant.

Every time a landlord's little hustle falls apart, an angel gets its wings

I have never heard of a seller not having to pay conveyance tax in CT.

The list of exemptions can be found Here and they are pretty rare circumstances.

Love that place

We're renting ours out as a vacation rental so it's thankfully more than paid for.

Wish we could have kept the house but couldn’t afford 2 houses

We kept our house to rent out so we'll be back fairly often but yeah, no chance we'll move back permanently

I’d just laugh at a neighbor. A “Christian” who loved Trump. The man grabbing women by the pu**y and who cheated on Wife #1 with #2, cheated on #2 with #3, etc…

Is it in this one? Find out

Up 40th, take a left and onto Santa Barbara. Be about a mile plus to you. Might go down and visit or Sox Spring Training but not even sure.

Ha! That's too funny. Our house is near the intersection of Santa Barbara and Trafalgar.

I had a neighbor that flew a flag on this ridiculously tall flagpole that said, "Fuck Biden and Fuck you too for voting for him" with a middle finger picture. For Christmas they had a baby Jesus nativity scene.

The dumbest most hateful people live in Florida.

Lol what happened?

Where? We were on SW 1st Place

Wife and I spent 15 years in that shithole state. Agreed with all your points. We have 3 kids who all live up here, family all in New England.

I’d add all the fake christians and terrible politics.

Lucky for us, we sold in May and made good money.

Regret to move in

In reasonable subs it’s against the rules, so we don’t have to debate over etiquette
