Condos are still cheap. People need to chill out with the whole detached housing thing, it's not economical in the long run (centuries) and we're rapidly approaching the point where it stops making sense near the coasts of the US. A point many countries have already reached.

- swiley 5y agoAt least near DC yeah condos are pretty cheap. I haven't checked Boston but it means housing supply is something that can be increased to meet demand so provided the local regulators are at least partly competent they shouldn't be too expensive.
- ghaff 5y agoIn Boston metro I doubt you could find a decent condo in a decent area for much less than $500K. Which you can get a house on some land for an hour outside the city in some communities.
