> You can drive through old neighborhoods near me with 1000 sq ft houses that sell for $40k because nobody wants a house that small. How closely have you looked at those $40K houses? I've seen a handful of sub-$100K smaller houses listed in my region, but they're wrecks; they'd need a massive amount of work to get anywhere near the comfort and safety level of a modern, well-maintained house. They're basically the house equivalent of buying a $500 car.
