Almost Self-Reliant
if you come out east things are a lot cheaper... course there's also few good jobs We paid $25,000 for our 3 bed, 1 bath home and 6 acres of land, but it needed TONS of work.moolie said:To help cheer you up, I can't believe the low cost of a house in your area--around here the average house price is $466,844 and the median selling price is $395,000. That's average and median, what normal people are paying for houses here--your basic 1000 sq ft 3 bedroom/1 bath rancher or equivalent two-story home.
Don't worry Leta, things always happen for a reason... we offered on a farm last year and our offer for $80,000 was accepted (it was a 4 bed farmhouse, one barn, two car garage and 60 acres) and then our financing fell through at the last possible second and someone else bought it... I cried for weeks.
Now a year later we're trying to buy an absolutely 100% nicer place with 48 acres, it's a little more money but we're in a better place financially... and now I know that if we don't end up getting this farm, another property will come along and someday we'll be in the place we were meant to be in. I just have faith now that things always work out the way they were meant to. everything for a reason so they say
