Well since my last post I've been busy. I took off to our new city and bought a house over the weekend. It's more money than I planned on spending(190K), but my goodness you get alot more house for about 25K more than I was planning on.
My agent summed it up best. "For an extra 25K you get about 60K more of a house" He isn't kidding. I went from an ok area with a fairly good house to a great area and within two blocks of a two schools with a great house that only needs some flooring and paint.
So that got me thinking, how often does this occur? Does every market have thresholds were the houses go from 'ok' to 'OH MY!' for only 20K more? Or is this just an odd local thing?
I look forward to everyone's stories.
