Would you return to your city this year?
Folks - just seeing what the masses are thinking after living through almost a year of COVID.
Are you planning on returning to CBD this year in 2021?
Like many, I bounced from major Northeast MSA Jun 2020 but have just signed a lease to return to city. My city was shut down and it was very depressing to be there in at the start of the pandemic. Fortunate enough to stay alive, keep my job and jam away on keyboards while all front line workers are savings lives, shout out to all my healthcare/frontline workers.
Anyhoo, new place allows super flexible lease (comes to show how shitty leasing momentum has been) and I get to start lease in July 2021, which is 5 months from now (ridiculous). Also, the lease is 25-30% discount in net effective rent compared to pre-covid, which is a great deal. I figure by then, my state would be close to 40-50% vaccinated, which is a good-enough threshold for city living to be back in full (90%) force hence restaurants and business should be back in normal hours by then with 100% capacity. My firm will likely adopt a 2-3 day a week from home, but I'd still want to be close to the office on those days.
What are your situations like now? Anyone as optimistic as me and thinking the same thing?
It's in my plans to return to a city, not likely to be the same one though. Some things in terms of the city I was living in, was pretty crappy. I've been using the advantages of WFH to station myself elsewhere, and hopefully I can make it more permanent. I'm pretty optimistic though that more of the normal work environment will come back in the summer with a combo of in-office and WFH being split more evenly. I definitely do want to lock in a good deal on a lease though while it's here, but I might wait a couple months since I'm essentially trying to change jobs, so we'll see if it works out.
