Where is this glorious housing market you speak of? I would love to see it!
- HDThoreaun 4y agoChicago. Plenty of housing here
- gamegoblin 4y agoI mention in my comment that I am from Arkansas, which has among the cheapest housing in the nation. My 1940s, 1500 sqft house in Seattle would probably have been considered a teardown in Arkansas, or have cost < $50K. Go checkout redfin there if you want to be a little depressed about West Coast prices. Check out when you can get for the median SF house ($1.3M). Gated mediterranean style 8000 sqft mansion on land with pool on a golf course / lake in the middle of the city: https://www.redfin.com/AR/North-Little-Rock/5-Edenwood-Ln-72116/home/81372459 https://www.redfin.com/AR/North-Little-Rock/5-Edenwood-Ln-72... Southern style 7300 sqft mansion in the middle of the city for far below SF median https://www.redfin.com/AR/North-Little-Rock/18-Heritage-Park-Cir-72116/home/81373838 https://www.redfin.com/AR/North-Little-Rock/18-Heritage-Park... Obviously, the downside is you are in Arkansas and not SF! I moved to Seattle for a reason. The BBQ there is quite good, though, and I miss it.
