When I first moved to San Francisco over 13 years ago, my original plan was to only stay here for a couple of years and then move back home to Southern California. Most of my family and friends were all in either OC or LA. I was born and raised in Orange County and just always envisioned myself back home. But that self-imposed deadline I had for myself came and went over a decade ago. I'm still in San Francisco and I haven't looked back since. I truly think this is one of the best cities in the entire world, but it's not without its problems or drawbacks. There are things I've learned living here over the years in multiple neighborhoods across the city the city and working with clients who have lived all over San Francisco for years but decided to leave that you need to be thinking about if you're considering relocating here. So I made a YouTube video giving you an honest take about the city after 13+ years living here. Comment the word video and I'll DM you a link, and follow me for more San Francisco real estate.
