[QUOTE="cybrcatter"][QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"][QUOTE="Baconbits2004"] The going price on quite a few houses in my area is $30,000 While average renting fee's are $600+. According to a wuick google search, if you made payments of $200 more than the average cost to rent, the house would be paid off for in about 3 and a half years. imo, that makes renting a waste of money. o.O I have no idea where you live but those are absurdly cheap houses and absurdly expensive apartments. Most people pay a mortgage their whole lives before they finally own their house. I don't know what crazy housing market you live in where you can own a house after just three years of very small payments. Detroit, maybe? Close! Detroit is a couple hour drive from here. :P
[QUOTE="Baconbits2004"] http://realestate.yahoo.com/Michigan/Muskegon been to some of the 10k to 30k houses personally, seemed like they were in pretty good shape inside and out. There was one that I just *loved* it had it's own little guest house attached to the garage, but that was rather expensive at $60k through the realtor. That's because they're foreclosed homes that the bank wants to get rid of. 962 foreclosures out of 1200 houses for sale? :lol: That's rough. Like i said, the average selling price of a house in the US is nearly $400,000. Most people pay a mortgage their whole lives. I cannot vouch for whatever the housing market is like where you live or what those houses might be like but that's $150,000 LESS than the US Housing Trust considers 'low value housing'.

That number is irrelevant to me. As I said before, renting, to me, is a waste of money. Because houses are available for so little money in my area compared to the cost of renting. The lowest price I'm even seeing on rent.com is $499 a month. :P
How about we take it easy on the girl threads. Seriously. That was mainly a joke, and OT is not the place to come for girl help. It just grew out of proportion, and seems to have become a very heavy fad. There's enough girl threads as is. Take a bit of a break from making threads.
