Hi Maximus Prime. Congrats on the move and the pool. It is going to be pool weather before we know it.

Whew, -20 is no joke. Thanks for subscribing!

SoCal Wine Country Homes by Jessica Genung With windchill it was -50 degrees. I was able to throw boiling water into the air and it turned to snow.

Santos Chronicles omg, I cant even imagine!

Lol I just commented about this, the endless cloudy days, wind chill factor, digging your car out of snow, NO THANK YOU

Hi Nancy. Your points are well taken. Thanks for taking the time to write.

I hear you. The traffic especially in Temecula seems to getting worse. My folks have been in Fallbrook for over 30 years as well. It would help if Fallbrook had a Target or any other shopping options;)

We try to cover both the good and bad. The good far outweighs the bad.

I R Thanks for the video suggestion! We are always looking for new video ideas. Summerly is a nice community although the City of Lake Elsinore has its challenges. In the meantime, I’d love to chat with you and give you the info you need. Can you email me your phone number and a good time to chat? Jessica.Genung@gmail.com

Thank you Kerri!

Moving to our area of Murrieta / Temecula?

@@moving2murrieta Exploring moving to a nice area in California from Canada :) your videos are really helpfull

Murrieta is a great option for people moving from LA and SD for great affordability and less traffic.

Hi Sam. The heat is a con for sure. The last two summer have seemed pretty bad (not just in our area). Anyway, we are here when you are ready. Jessica Genung Active Realty DRE#01876252 (760) 309-7679 Jessica.Genung@gmail.com

Yikes, seems early to already be 100!

Affordable and NICE!;)

Yes, 75% of the year the weather is amazing! Just have to get through the summer, lol. Thanks for checking out the channel and I hope you get to move back here someday!

Hi Levi Lin. The travel time to SAN can be an hour or less during weekdays at like 11AM but you are right about LAX. That one is brutal. We prefer ONT by the way. Thanks for the comment.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching

Hi 808slowly. First, about the Counties, yes, Murrieta and Temecula are on the Southwest border of Riverside County next to San Diego County. Temecula is the southernmost city in the county. On the 15 heading south past Temecula Parkway is a Rainbow exit, check station and then a person finds themselves in San Diego County. Yes, there is a Sam's Club in Murrieta. I only know of the 1 location. There is a Costco in Temecula and Lake Elsinore. Another Costco is coming to Murrieta on the 215 and Clinton Keith so that will make 3 total. I hope that helps and thanks for watching and commenting.

Yes, besides the summer, the weather is amazing. Where did you move from?

@@moving2murrieta I cam from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The lack of winter is a huge plus!

Drake Clifton wow, one extreme to the other, lol. Maybe Murrieta could be a better fit for you. A little less traffic here, but still close enough to Temecula things to do. And we have the Plateau since you like the outdoors! Thanks for watching my video!

Where else would you go? Want to move to this area from Chicago and seems like an ideal option.

Did you end up moving away from this area? Just curious where you ended up after reading your comment.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Hi Cecilia. People like to hear the good and the bad sometimes. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi DJ Cali. Thanks for the comments. It would be great to hear more of what you think of Murrieta v LA.

@@moving2murrieta Hey Jessica, my family and I love it here. We moved here in December , but my sister purchased here in 1991 so I've been visiting Murrieta for the past 30 years. I purchased a house out here because the prices are so affordable. I lived in 90016 zip code and the houses start at $850,000. It's hard to beat Los Angeles when it comes to dining, beaches, and nightlife, but none of that is why we moved out here. We moved here because it is affordable, we love the small population, and the peace and quiet. Los Angeles has a population of four million people, out here it is less than one hundred and fifty thousand. For us the reduction in population is very noticeable and much appreciated. It's nice to sit outside, grill some food, and drink a bottle of wine while watching the sun set. without any disruption from others.

Hi DJ Cali. We missed this comment. Apologies for the delay. Thanks for all the good points about the area. Much better than LA for sure.

Not as bad as LA traffic in all fairness:) No gridlock, lol

Hi Fallon, sorry I didn't see your comment till now! Both Temecula and Murrieta have their pros and cons. Full disclosure, I live in Murrieta. But Temecula is awesome as well. Temecula, is more expensive which means to me that the market has decided Temecula is more desirable. Temecula has more traffic, but more things to do typically. I'm going to be making some videos soon about Temecula v. Murrieta:) When are you thinking about moving? Thanks for the comment!

Hi Jessica!! Thank you so much for replying! I am hoping to be there by the end of the year for sure. I have two sister there already. They live in Menifee. I think I am spelling that right? I had a feeling that Temecula was more expensive but I wasn’t sure why. I would love to see your videos that you have coming up!! I am very excited to for them! Thank you so much for what you do!! I am subscribing as soon as I send this post to you!!

@@a.d.c7941 Awesome! Thanks for subscribing and let me know if you have any more questions about the area. I love sharing with folks about what it's like to live in the Temecula/Murrieta Valley!

SoCal Wine Country Homes by Jessica Genung Thank you so much!! I definitely will and I look forward to watching more of your videos!!

Samcanplaymusic Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching. Are you considering moving to Murrieta? Watch out for my video this week that is about Temecula v. Murrieta:) It has great info in it as well.

Moving to Murrieta by Jessica Genung actually very interested in Temecula since it’s closer to San Diego jobs. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for that video!

Thanks for the feedback and I agree! I didn't know they closed the pantry though:( I love the south Temecula area and yes, so many people want to move here and it is getting crowded, lol. Hoping the new French Valley freeway exit will help! Thanks for checking out my video!

See my response to you about jobs on your comment on my Cost of Living video. I've had many questions about jobs in the area, so I'll be making a video about it soon! Let me know what other questions you have about Moving to Murrieta. I'm here to help:)

It's not exactly the Gas Lamp District in Downtown San Diego but there are things to do with a bit of extra effort. I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.

True, not Las Vegas hot, but I do love the warm Vegas nights! No sweater needed:)

Chris knows Vegas (lived there for 4 years). Jessica and Chris know Palm Springs which is a lot like Vegas late spring summer to late fall with 100 days over 100. The last few years have had like 30 days over 110-115 and 120+ brutal.

She said average. In Perris it can get past 110.

Or AZ!!

Thanks for checking it out! :)

I would love to visit Virginia one of these days. I haven't been there since my 8th grade East Coast Trip! Way overdue...

Hi Axton. Here is a video we did on bugs and wild animals. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y9WaeteSv7K9knk.html

Hi Laura. You have surely seen big changes. I remember Murrieta and Temecula from my high school days. What do you think about Murrieta then versus now?

@@moving2murrieta I surely miss the way it was , but I do like having everything by me now. We still love it here 👍

That is great to hear. Thanks for the perspective.

Hi M G. What is the list you are looking at with Murrieta as #12 on there?

Hi Eric. Here is my Murrieta Market Snapshot for March. We will be doing April numbers the next week or two. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mLJjh85py86tZqs.html The average price in March of a Single Family Home (SFH) in Murrieta was $511,697 and again, that is SFH and that does not include condos etc. There is a lot of nice houses around the $450k range with the criteria you mentioned. Here is the newsletter I put out weekly and at the bottom there are links for price ranges in Menifee/Murrieta/Temecula incl a $400k to $500k segment. That is real time MLS info that updates automatically. conta.cc/35lyrIS I hope that answers your question and please let me know if there is anything I can do to help. ~Jessica

@Moving to Murrieta by Jessica Genung Thank you Jessica!! 😊 I want to check out the ones you mentioned in Murrieta and Temecula area with the $400-$500k range. I've been around there a few times in the past and know there's a lot of gorgeous houses in those areas. I will let you know if there is anything you can help with. Take care. *A video tour of the house for sale is very helpful...😁

@@ericmknsana2608 Yes, please reach out if there is anything we can do for you. We are here to help!

Moving to Murrieta by Jessica Genung Are there any Murrieta houses with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bath and 1 car garage around the $200-350k range? 😊 Most I see in that area have 3+ bedrooms and 2+ baths w/ 2 car garage.

@@ericmknsana2608 As you have noticed, 2 bedrooms are pretty rare, but they do come available occasionally. If you send me your email address I can set you up on a search so any 2 bedrooms that become available will be emailed to you as soon as they are listed.

Thanks Cyndee!

Hi Jake. Yes, it is getting pricey these days. Thanks for dropping by.

Compared to most So Cal cites, yes I do. Especially for the price

@@moving2murrieta So in terms California's overall politics, would you say that the state is better off following the standards of Murrieta instead of just being fluid or more limited by leadership?

@Darnell Major we venture into the risky territory of politics on the video this week. Check it out. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gK5xYLySupammGQ.html

Thanks for watching!

Definitely apartments for $1900. Not sure about single family homes. That's probably about where rent starts for a single family. I don't do rentals currently, but I have heard that the rental market for single family homes in Murrieta and Temecula is very competitive.

@@moving2murrieta -- How good of you to reply, Jessica. I found an adorable house in Menefee for $1700, on a golf course. When I'm ready to buy a home in Murrieta I'll ask you to assist.

A house for $1,700 on a golf course (like Menifee Lakes perhaps) would be really really good. That would be a hard situation to give up with my only points against that is the low interest rates which won't last forever and the equity that owning provides. But really though, it sounds like you are in a good spot. Thanks for the comments.

Marilyn Guinnane Glad you found a nice rental in Menifee! Thanks for keeping me in mind when the time is right for you to buy 😊

@@moving2murrieta -- Here it is: www.zillow.com/homedetails/28112-Palm-Villa-Dr-Menifee-CA-92584/17916236_zpid/? I've filled out an app. and since my credit rating is 812, maybe I'll get it. An adorable place. I want to closely watch the economy because we could conceivably be facing another 2008 debacle. Plus, I think it's always good to rent for a while before determining if an area is the right place. You learn your way around. You''re a doll, Jessica, and thanks again.

Hi JJ. I don't think Chris or I know any Borels directly. The name sounds familiar though and then we realized Borel Road out in wine country might be why. Anyway, thanks for commenting.

It is!:)

Deena Urbanik Hi Deena! It’s about a 45 minute drive

That’s not too bad! I’m thinking about moving to CA and came across your video! Thank you!

Hi Deena. What are you thinking about moving to CA lately?

Hi Jessica, We are talking about moving out there next year! I would love to talk to you!

Sounds good Deena. My number is 760-212-7916 and Jessica.Genung@gmail.com is my email. We like to do a quick meet and greet phone call or zoom. Sometimes these talks get into the details so it is nice to schedule a time block. What days and times do you have available this week? The times of 10:30AM and 11:30AM are best for calls on my end. Anyway, thanks for the replies.

Luis Meraz Very mild in the winter! Highs in about the 60s. Not a lot of rain, but some. No snow here. So cal weather:) Where do you live now?

Hi MikerDaniels1 here is my cost of living video with electric bills. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ga-cfKmZttXWpJs.html

What is your last name Audra...Murrieta? Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting.

Hi Vena. Thanks for this comment. Apologies for the slow reply.

I’ll take the hot over the cold and snow as well:) It’s manageable IMO

I am a contractor and have lived in every major city in every state for more than 2yrs. Especially the states that are attractive to native californians, such as Idaho, montana, TEXAS (prop taxes are almost 3x higher there than Ca btw), and Arizona. Bottom line after more than 17yrs of researching and doing actual cost analysis with real life experience, not stats from a website..... I moved my wife, daughter and both moms to Murrieta 2yrs ago from Bartlett, schaumburg, streamwood IL area. We saved a LOT of money on our utilities living here and saved over $10k a yr on our property tax and our house is 1k sq ft bigger than our IL house. There is No taxes on groceries unlike IL, overall sales tax is 1% to 3% lower than most of IL,. Also propositiom 13 caps your tax assessment to no more than a max of 2% per yr on the value of your home. Base prop tax rate is 1%, vs. In IL at 3%. Our IL house property tax went up $5600 in 1 year alone and continued to grow every yr. The house was only valued at $400,000+ and my tax was $18,100 per yr. I am now paying just under $8k here in Murrieta. This part of Socal is an absolute hidden GEM. Weather here is not that hot 25%. The lack of humidity makes it a god send for people from humid areas like IL. Temps here gradually go up to a peak temp around 3pm. On a peak 95F day. Its only that temp for maybe 3hrs from Noon to 3pm. 7am to noon its 60s to 70s then 80s. Then after 3pm it goes to low 90s to 80s to 70s. So basically, you have awesome perfect weather like 75% of the time from 7am to 10pm. After 10pm its perfect. My dad visited dad visited from IL and slept outside on my patio as his bed. Becauss the weather and NO MOSQUITOS! You cant even stay outside in IL or anywhere east of the west coast, including the carolinas and florida.

I don't know you or your products, but thanks for watching and commenting Madi Girl.

Hi Ryan. It is definitely more of a family area. We like it though. Thanks for the comment.

@@moving2murrieta The problem is more and more people have to move to this area because the inner cities are becoming too expensive. I guess that’s what happens when you vote Democrat. California is falling apart.

Hi Kelly & Missy. This is a tough question for us to answer, but we are looking into it. Please give me and Chris a little time to look into this better. Thanks for asking and commenting.

Moving to Murrieta by Jessica Genung thank you so much for looking into this!

@@KellyClaire Pretty sure that licensing does not allow me to answer this question unfortunately. We are also not allowed to comment on diversity (which I get asked about all the time). I don't agree with this, but never the less, that is the rules. I wish I could be candid about these questions because I know they are important to so many folks considering a move here!
