    Austin, TX. Prices here more than doubled from 2019-2023, but have been falling for well over a year now. A ton of new homes and apartments are still hitting the market too, so I doubt we’ve hit the bottom.

      They built housing and aren’t a retirement home for rich boomers who like to ski and golf.

        I just looked on Zillow at house prices in Vermont and there are some fucking good deals, but not in the really desirable areas like where you probably want to live

              You need to be in vermont to understand how feasible these places are. The work required for any deals is usually major and getting the labor to do it is a long waiting list.
