That’s one of the big problems, the old “Fixer Upper” doesn’t exist anymore in a safe neighborhood. That was the primary way young people could get their first home and build equity. Now to live in a somewhat desirable neighborhood, it takes at least a few hundred thousand dollars.
Good point.
“in a safe neighborhood“
I live in Memphis that is on this list. I’m in one of the “safe” neighborhoods. McMansion type neighborhood.
If I go out walking at night I hear automatic gunfire.Not semiautomatic, I know the difference.
I realize people here won’t believe me but it’s true.
