<<Bill, our 500K homes aren't very big. It's the demand for houses close to the city that drives the market. >> In real estate they say location is everything. My house, 3,800 sq' with a two car garage and 5 acres would be worth a bunch in your area. Here they're a dime a dozen. People moving here from the coasts have really skewed prices. $500k would get you a home about 8,000 sq' and a three car garage in my neighborhood. <<And the school buildings in the city fall apart. >> Not here, they're all new.
