40 mins each way currently (no traffic), mostly highway. More mileage than I'd like, bjt I've had longer committed to the city in the past. Typical has been 30-35 mins.

Ideal for me would be 20-25 mind without traffic. I like having the headspace, and i usually pass things like the grocery store or gym so it's less of an inconvenience.

I will say, stop and go traffic, one lane, traffic lights with no alternate route is the worst. 40 min commutes aren't all the same.

Would love everyone’s thoughts! Which of these two options would you pick if your goal is to buy and hold for appreciation purposes given these are in a very hot market. Both same lot size.

Option 1:
- $175k lot located on very busy street but across the street from new $700k townhomes and restaurants

Option 2:
- $250k 3 bed/1 bath fixer upper located at end of dead end street, houses on street all fixer uppers, located down the street from Option 1 (so also near new builds and restaurants)
