Where can I buy a house/condo for around $100k?
 

and not live in the middle of east bumfuck?
I need to buy something, can't keep renting. Hate throwing my money away every month.

Florida

section 8

Is there vacancy beside you?

Jon

Canada.

california
3/2 for around 100k
just dont expect it to be anywhere near the ocean
try fresno

Shreveport, Louisiana. 100k here is upper middle class. Certain areas it's a damn nice home for the money.

no

Upstate Pennsylvania for a $100K you can get land and a big ass house to go with it.

Just came from South Florida, it's pretty nice down there.

PA or FL

thinking of hitting up FL within the next 2 years

a cardboard box in New York

lol. What a fucking hellhole. No offense stocktrader23 but that entire state is fucked beyond belief.

transilvania

No offense taken. I agree 100% and can't wait to get the fuck out of here.

You can always get something on the Gold Coast..

Earn US dollars, pay AU prices :)

Atlanta suburbs - easy!

for a 1 story houses.. you can buy a brand new house for about 100k in arizona..

Well, I just sold a Condo in Florida for a little less than that. But, it was a mile from the water..... Been renting it out for 15 years. Sold it to the first people who looked at it.

Texas, South NJ, Arizona, Georgia, Florida

I am pretty sure you can buy Canada for $100k.

You can get a house for $100 outside of dallas, nothing great, but a house. I would suggest florida.

At first I thought you were totally joking, but after checking realtor.com I see that you were just exaggerating a little. You can indeed buy a 2/1 or 3/1 1000 square feet max for 100k.

The flipside is you have to live in a shack in fresno ;)

I have a 3 bedroom / 2 bath house with a yard on the side, front and back. 2 spaces out back for my trucks in montgomery county PA.

20 minutes outside center city philly / 90 minutes from NYC and 1 hour+ from Atlantic city.

97k... We went FHA. Put down $5,000 and pay $960 a month for 2000 sq ft.

We have had to perform alot of upgrades and work on the place, but, I did a lot myself. I had no idea how to do this when we bought this, I just read some, asked lots of questions to friends and gave it a shot.

Its totally worth it when I can look around and this is MINE.

Oxford, Mississippi home of the University of Mississippi. Decent house for $100k or decent condo for $100k

fuuuuck
are these for real?

I belive it...my dad used to live in plano. Quality newer house, good size (2000+ square feet), swimming pool, nice quiet neighborhood and the houses were selling in the 220s.

Obviously a couple steps up from what you are referring to Brad, but the same spread would run 500k-750k in the bay area. Texas is a fine value

Yes Marcus, those are real. Welcome to the Bay Area

Those ones in guadalupe dont count as houses

Crazy. Only a retard would spend that kind of money for those houses. The same kinds of houses would go for about $80 - 100K around here.

Im currently renting a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom house (1800 sq ft) for $350 a month. I could buy it for $50k. Its pretty nice, but its in bumfuck, MS

Florida :thumbsup

Dude, you want to hear crazy??? At the height of the boom, some couple bought an old 1/1 500ish square footer in san jose for $550k. no shit.

I believe it. I hope it put them into bankruptcy.

FL isn't as cheap as it once was... house prices have been going up fairly quickly here on the east coast... you won't find a condo or townhouse on beach side for under 100k expect 150k for a fixer upper kinda close to the beach... even the inland areas are getting pricey if you want a decent area.

HAHA along with a 5 year waitting list

Vegas :thumbsup

don't know, but it would make an interesting "what ever happened to these suckers" story

On the surface at least, Vegas appears to be another place where you get great bang for your buck. Of course you have to live in the middle of the fucking desert LOL ;)

Would be great to hear from the board members who are LV residents

Way more then 100K
