Its OFFICIAL!!

Well after months of trying to and trying I finally did it.

I will be joining the Arizona FRS/BRZ crew as today I received a job offer and accepted.

My first day of work is April 29th! I will be coming from the always cold Milwaukee, WI. I am so excited. I will be leaving my family and everything I have known my entire life to make this move. Hope all you AZ guys are welcoming.

Congratulations and welcome. My wife and I have been in Arizona 17 years now and love it. I tell my friends back east that in the summer time we do the same thing they do. We live in a/c, drive in a/c, shop in a/c and dine in a/c. The big difference is we don't shovel snow or wear goulashes.

Wow thanks. I got offered a position at jp Morgan chase and will be working at the chase tower downtown in phoenix. I was looking at the trillium apartments. And probably in the price range of 1k a month and 2 bedrooms. renting a house would be nice for that price but i don't even know where to start looking. Id like only a 20 min -ish commute to work give or take if a great place.

I have a few friends that live right Downtown Phoenix and they love it. But phoenix is like any other city either you live down town or you live in a nearby city but everything in between is a little less than ideal. You could walk to work in 5min from either of these. I also know a great rental agent if you want her number.
