Default Re: Property: What Can You Buy For $500,000?

I'm just kind of curious for anyone else that lives in an area with a lot of new construction.

In Northern Virginia it is VERY VERY common for a house to have a brick front, and vinyl siding on the other three sides of the house.

Are there any other areas that do this? I think this is so ugly, and just looks like crap, but for some reason builders around here have been doing it for the last 10-15 years or so.

Here's a taste of Dublin, Ireland. These are all in fairly undesirable areas. All of these are between 350-400 thousand euro. 500k is approx €367k

Seattle, WA


$490,000, 3 bed 1 bath, single family home. 1570 sq. ft, built in 1954.


$459,950, 4 bed 3 bath 2130 sq. ft. built in 1928

Hmm, that last one is in a pretty decent area and it's reasonably priced.

Anyway, a decent house in the city of Seattle (and not Shoreline or some other [censored] suburb) will cost you $350,000 - $600,000.

When I lived in Cleveland you could get a really nice house for $200,000. But then you have to live in Cleveland, I guess.
