What ya get for 277K in LV

When we lived in Wylie, TX, the same builder who built our house also built one nextdoor. By some poor design, there was not enough room for each house to have its own driveway and we ended up having to share one. It looked like a huge "Y". It was never a problem and my sister and I ended up playing a lot with our neighbor's kids. Still, I wouldn't want to have this again - especially with two Porsches at my house!

I love going to the UP in the summers and picking up the local real estate flyers. I seem to recall houses going for as little as $10k. Big, fancy houses with lots of land might be $40k. Heck, up there, unfinished wooded land goes for more because of the timber rights...

I'm adding on to my house; an 11 X 13 office with access from the front yard - $150K not including paint and landscaping. If I didn't love it here in the SF Bay Area so much I'd have moved long ago.

THREE stories? 1,700 sq ft.?

Glad to see someone is actually doing something about America's growing obesity problem.

Nathan's dad beat me to it, that's about what $250k will buy here. Big fancy house, excellent neighborhood. You ought to see what a million will buy here! There are perks to living in the midwest.

I agree with the Dallas traffic, we have family in Richardson, how people drive in that hell everyday is beyond me. Fun to visit, but I could never stay.

Fastest car = first out. More incentive for Porsche ownership.

I hope they mean "cul-de-sac", not "driveway". How the hell would that work? What if someone blocks it? What if someone wants to work on their car? Spills oil? Too many difficult details. . .

Sounds like a bargain by NJ standards.

I just paid $240K for a brick house built like Fort Knox and meticulously maintained. Main floor was 2BR, 1BA, lots of mahogany built-ins, built in stove and ovens, great location. Brick garage is 2-car, over wide and over deep with storage. Basement is dry as a bone with 3/4 BA, wired and plumbed but otherwise unfinished. Split entry in back. When I am done it will be two 2BR apartments of 1050 SF each.

Road rage before you hit the street!
