No. Move somewhere else.

Five minutes of internet research would have made that quite clear to you.

The fact that you were on Long Island in 2013 should have already answered this question.

Seriously. Wondering why they moved away in he first place, one guess "too expensive".

OP, it is possible in other parts of NY, but I’m not seeing it on L.I.

No.


Co-op maybe... and even then, only lower-tier towns.


Better start saving

There are a few decent spots in Shirley-Mastic.
You'd probably be fine as long as you dont leave your property.

Actually, there are a few co-ops in Smithtown in that price range. Would you call that a lower-tier town?

I wouldn’t call a co-op a house.
