not everyone has the luxury to work remote. for the average person in the area of your 200k house how easy is it to afford with a normal wage?

    Very interesting. A very basic house in Austria is over 500k and not in a hot location, while to my knowledge wages here are not higher than in Finland. How is a house so cheap in Finland? 200k is basically Eastern/Southern European house prices, where wages are lower. I feel like the insane housing prices here are not just related to nimbyism that restricts supply, but mostly to speculation driven by banking, political greed, realtors, investors, basically any and all large piles of money that have housing constantly going up fast so that their piles of money get even bigger.

      In a rural but well maintained area in France, my parents bought recently an old family house for 80k (to which you have to add some renovation costs). In this area a brand new house with a good amount of land is 200-300k. In my own area, a new house is more along the lines of 500k. In any case those things are highly localized here, I imagine it's true in Austria as well (though the country is much smaller than either Finland or France).

      Rural Finlan and it is row house and about 100m^2 but generally you can get fairly good new house at rural Finland somewhere between 200k-300k.

  The UK. Or at least, Northern Ireland. You won't be in a city centre, but there are new builds on offer under that mark.
