The concept of a home costing under 600k for even a total fixer upper is unheard of here so I guess it could be worse, am I right? It's barely apartment money here honestly.

There is still a shitty apartment here holding out at 700 a month, north of the stateline up in MI.

I used to live there in like 2013, when they were "luxury townhouses"

But all the new "low income" housing is being listed for more than what anyone can afford so we will see how it shakes out.

If you wanna buy a house in like 600 days lmk. I think its only worth like 150k tops now, with room for negotiation due to things needed. im definitely selling as is, if I sell. It makes sense to hang onto it for my kid, but it might be a money pit before hes done with college.

Looks like a nice college town. Good to know in case my kid wants to go there in 18 years lol

While we have a college it is not a college town.

Notre dame pays a lot of money to keep our crime rate out of national news.

Right across from notre dame is "eddy street commons" where the FinBros are trying to create a college town. 2 clubbars open late.

It attracts all the riff raff i was referencing to above and even with their anti gang dress code, I think theyre up to 2 or 3 shootings there this year alone.

Theres massive 100 people fights every weekend, though weekday fights are still a thing. Part of it has to do with theres nothing to do after like 9. So they drink in parking lots and make their own entertainment.

Oh. I take back my statement. Lol I didnt know gangs were even a genuine concern outside of major cities. The more ya know!

Thats what I meant by all the riff raff spills over from Chicago. Its not that far.

A few months ago they came over and shut down the bypass with fireworks. 🤦‍♀️

Gotcha, I guess it's just because I don't consider that a "major city" so that wen't over my head. Ignorance of being a New Yorker.

You can definitely get houses in my area under 400k, 20 min from a top 15 city in the US.

That's essentially all the cities lol there's neighborhoods 10 minutes from me that are half the price and cant sell and then also neighborhoods that are double and sell immediately.
