I live in Michigan. Most of the houses below 300k are either so far out in the sticks you can barely even get Internet, or they’re in dangerous and very run down areas.
There are a few nice places listed at 250k, but they sell instantly and for quite a bit above what they’re listed at, so it’s not like you can actually get one of them.
Not if you hide the pending/contingent ones. They’re basically already sold.
Also, the houses that have a garage and aren’t pending are mostly above $250k. They barely count as being “below $300k”.
And like I said, those cheaper houses sell instantly and for a lot above the asking price, unless there’s something wrong with them that will cost a lot to fix. You can’t actually buy a $250k house for $250k.

The median price is under 300K, so at least half the houses in Michigan cost less than 300K.
So what you’re saying is that more than half the people in the state of Michigan live in houses that are not nice enough for you?
I’m saying your numbers are bullshit. Houses aren’t actually that cheap.
I’m going to go with what Forbes says over your impressions.
Or what Zillow says.
Or just look at the > 200 2+BR houses under $300K in Grand Rapids alone.
Lol they’re mostly trailers
More than half of those houses have a garage…
