Hey! Where are you New Jersey people

Why don't you show us what a million dollars gets you in The Land of $500,000 fixer-uppers

Interesting thread... I can't wait to look at the other links.

This is close to my home. The house appears to be in the process of getting cleaned-up/fixed up. Maybe they ran out of money, I don't know. It's almost 2 acres of land, that amount of land is uncommon around here. Pictures of the interior of the home aren't shown, that says something about its condition. http://homes.realtor.com/search/lis...09b6ca3e&lid=1080286101&lsn=9&srcnt=86#Detail

Here is another one for comparison, in the same area: http://homes.realtor.com/search/lis...93bbe96&lid=1077682592&lsn=10&srcnt=86#Detail

This is the house we are considering for half a million. I want it sooooo bad, but my hubby doesn't like the "old" house, scared it will have problems. I want to jump up down and grab him and shake him....I want it!!!!! That home has a pool AND tennis court...I want that house.....Can you imagine a million dollar home?! LOL

Here is a million dollar home and my dream home is better imo: http://www.midgeorgiarealestate.com...GetContent=no&SessionSQL=Y&PageNO=2&PID=93735

And the next highest was $375:

What you're really paying for here are the acres -- 73 of them!

I don't live IN Celebration, but it's the closest home at the million mark.

Love the property - would definitely have to do something with the interior.

Housing prices are horrible here even with the housing bust. I am so glad I got into my house when I did.

So, let's see what is on the market for a million bucks. Well, you could get this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath "beauty"

And no, it does not come with a ton of land or anything like that.


Now, if you want to stretch yourself and go "all out" for $1,189,000.00 you can have this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath "beauty":

Ah, you think "maybe a condo or townhouse would be more affordable". Why, yes it is! For $608,800 you can have this 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath condo:

The *only* good thing about housing being overpriced here is that someday I am going to want to sell my house. If these pieces o' junk are going this high I would love to know the current value of my house.

This one is a few blocks from my condo, but is a bit our of my budget and a bit more then 1 mil.

Now... This is what a 1 mil. in my neighborhood looks like

This is the closest to me I can find. About 5 minutes away, and around the corner from where I grew up. Most of this neighborhood is 60s ranch houses. But a LOT of tear downs/rebuilds are going on. So you have ranch houses selling for around $300-400K, next door to new homes selling for over $1 million. Crazy!

How do people afford to live there??? I'm just in shock.

My house was less than $100k. I bet it would go pretty high where you live if we could only transport it over there. I've seen houses in the teens that are fixer uppers.

And this is the cheapest one in Warren Buffet's neighborhood. http://homes.realtor.com/search/lis...925ee61&lid=1081373963&lsn=10&srcnt=27#Detail
