[Bubble99]

What cities are most expensive and cities the least expensive when comes buying house?

I hear Los Angeles to buy a house is $700,000 and San Diego and San Francisco over a million.

And $600,000 in Dallas and $400,000 in Phoenix.

Mid sized metros in the Midwest, South, Interior Northeast and parts of the West away from the coast.

I don't think LA is only 100k more than Dallas. Could be wrong.

Yea that isn't accurate.
The average price of a home in Greater LA is ~$800-900k (higher in LA County). The average price of a home in the Greater Dallas is ~$400k

Every region has price fluctuations by neighborhood, but Dallas is generally affordable.

According to Redfin, L.A median price is $1.0 M.

Just came across my old neighbor’s 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom 1079 sqf little vinyl sliding one story house built in 1965 with almost no yard is estimated $1.355 M.

Dallas is affordable until you compare it to Houston. Houston is very affordable.

That’s not even the worst. At least that house was on the hill and in South Pasadena with great school district so I can see why it’s “desirable”.

I’m in Redondo Beach/Manhattan Beach area, drove a few streets over it was pretty dumpy, house sign $1.9 million for a tiny box with only car port, guess it’s beach-adjacent?

But still, it’s impossible not to love California. Hurriquake and all.

Where I live, tiny mcmansions (under 2200 sq feet) are going for 1.7-2. New builds, so they look really nice, but that's custom home pricing imo.
