And thats not even in Ocean City. Its in Berlin, about 10 min from the beach. :hsugh:
Whats the property like? is that shitty house on 50 acres or something? Or is there a meth lab in the basement? thats a lot of money for a shack.
50 acres… its a little over a half acre. and it doesnt have a basement.
house hunting down here is nauseating. There isnt anything but shit for under $250K. 250K in Kittanning would get you a NICE fucking house.
Fox Chapel :jerkit:
$150,000 in my neighborhood would be my house with $20,000 in small bills on the kitchen counter.
Look in Salisbury… They have nice homes there…
My sister lives in the DC area, you cant even get into a single family home for under $500,000. The condo she lives in was around $350,000. But the job market there is great, everyone wants to live there.
The only one at 150 didn’t have a picture, but this is what 185k gets you
my house was in the 150 range, 2 beds, 1 car garage, 3 stories. 900 sq’ of living space.
Makes me even more satisfied living in Pittsburgh.
Mike - how far out do you have to go before the prices come down?
thanks for that wonderful tip. I never would have thought of that. :ugh:
Exactly. The job market in DC is totally different. There are no high paying jobs in OC. Its 100% unskilled labor. Its easy to walk into a 80K job in DC. You’d be damn lucky to find something for $30K here. I dont know how the fuck people do it.
far. Things are more reasonable in Salisbury, which is at least a 30 minute drive. Your house would most likely be a million dollar home down here.
Be glad you live in Pittsburgh - this is one of the most reasonable, predictable house markets in the country. I used to live in Connecticut and left when I realized that I could never afford to buy a house that I would actually want to live in.
…sorry, but there are no $150,000 houses in my neighborhood. However, mine is for sale if anyone is interested:
