- a three bedroom air-conditioned house for $30,000 is so 70s. America is the coolest property market country on earth.
I was talking to my cousin in Oklahoma and was stunned at the price she said she gave for the old "homestead." Stone house, 3 bedrooms & finished attic, "only" a couple of acres. Less than what I paid for my house 35 years ago.

You couldn't put enough air conditioners in that house to bring the price up to $30,000. Amazing.

Not sure how you'd get broadband Internet service there, tho . . .

There are parts of the country where you can still a full-sized home outright. However, they all seem to be in places like Crawford that no one wants to move to.
