In Utah County the cheapest "House" for sale is 600 square feet, 2 bed, 1 bath, at $300k.

So at current interest rate it would be $1,800 a month mortgage(assuming you put the 60k down payment! A decent amount more if you do 3% down.)

The cheapest condo/town in utah valley is 205k, 1,100 square feet, on a 400 square foot lot. But due to a $500 HOA fee the monthly cost is still 1,700 a month (assuming 20% down).

With 3.5% down they'd both be closer to 2.1k +PIMI.

So yeah, how is where you live doing?

In the city at large, I see the cheapest apartment 750sq feet for 18k but you can be sure the whole building is falling down; cheapest empty lot $30k 2,500 sq feet (so maybe do-able if you can build up 2-3 stories, since you aren't actually allowed to build out to the edges of the lot).

Cheapest actual detached house in my 'inside the city, close to work and everything' neighborhood is an eye watering $440k and 1,500 sq feet, cheapest for sale apartment 700 sq ft $140k.

Most EXPENSIVE house in my neighborhood $2,250,000, and most expensive house listed in the whole city, add another zero to that price.

Just a couple of years ago I found two houses on Zillow going for $65,000 in Cleveland. A front house/back house situation.

When you say front house / back house is that like a duplex?

Very pricey is all i can say.

Handful of townhouses for sale. Cheapest is $225k for 2 beds/1 bath, 1100 sq.ft. The others for sale are about 20k more expensive and are bigger (and there are some that are $$$).

One of the older (60s?) homes in the area is for sale $525k. It's 3 bed/3 baths, 2100 sq.ft. and an ingroind heated pool and half an acre. This is far too cheap for the area so it might be a divorce or something.

Most lots go for about 400k and other houses are 600k. This is in one of the big upper middle class suburbs in the Midwest

A tiny 2 bed house that is in poor condition is about ยฃ55,000

$80k for a ~600 sqft condo here in CT, it doesn't look all that bad

[โ€“] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago

Legal or illegal? Legal is around 220k in local currency, illegal is 80k. Divide that by 5 to get the approximate price in dollars

Fun to know that it's still absolutely screwed.

When I search in a 30KM radius, the cheapest house starts at 140K euros. You only get 19mยฒ (204 sq ft) so it's like just one room? But for 150K you can get a 55mยฒ (592 sq ft) house that's probably a bathroom, livingroom and bedroom.

Per square feet actually more expensive, but houses in the Netherlands aren't that big anyway.
