Mike,

We’d love to have you in the ‘hood. I don’t know much about Spokane but have been there and it’s a nice place. Many years ago, I looked at buying a place just outside of Spokane in a place called Spraig. There was a former Nike missile site for sale. They wanted about $100K for it. It had about 20 acres, a landing strip (gravel) a HUGE mostly buried building that was the missile silo and prep area, complete with pop-top roof. There was enough room inside to make a U turn with a dual tractor trailer combo, and a ramp of equal proportions. The “Front” doors were about 30‘ wide by about 50’ tall. It was entirely cool.

Spokane gets a fair amount of snow in the winters, and is a gateway neighborhood to some of the best skiing and beautiful areas in Canada – Banff, Revelstoke, Big White, and many others are a few hours drive away. While Washington doesn’t have sales tax, many of the other taxes are amongst the highest in the nation. BTW, do you like wheet fields????
