There's no way I could afford my house on either coast, cause it's 4300 sq feet with a huge yard and a pool. But if I told you how much it cost, you'd shit, cause it was really cheap by coast cost of living.

A more useful number might be housing value per sq. ft. (fair market value divided by square footage). Doing it this way, $106. that doesn't seem right but whatever. Yeah, mine's $251 that way, and that seems dopey.

It was on the market 9 months cause it needed updating big time. I love those kinds of houses cause I like to redo everything to my tastes anyway. It really just needs the kitchen and bathrooms redone, but they aren't horrible as they are. The floor plan is great. I mean yeah, we'll put a big chunk into it when it's all said and done, but I still couldn't get this sq. footage in this part of town unless I spent anywhere from 600K up. But I know even on the coasts, that would be cheap.

So for many people, it makes sense to keep a large mortgage and invest any excess cash in retirement or other investment funds, rather than paying off their house. Winner.
