My mistake in this, though, is that very price range. At that range, you do tend to get a lot of places that are just big houses. I either should have gone higher ($3 to $5 million) or lower (maybe $500,000), to get either more bling or more choice. I don't think I could really go higher, though, because in a lot of places that range would just mean more land. So you're stuck with my $900,000 to $999,999 price range.

Yeah, I sort of figured that and almost threw a sidenote in there about the range making it tricky in areas that simply don't have that budget. Still though, for a guy posting from a Denver square I've seen some real crappers :). Fort Collins blew, and FL was just a mish mash of weirdness but I have fairly intimate knowledge of several areas there. I also tend to think "personal paradise with pool" in FL and of course any mountainous area needs a particular house and appropriate surrounding land. You seem to have strange choices when you go urban vs burbs for particular cities but again may just be the budget along with a differing viewpoint per city.

However Fort Collins was donkey balls, I will not bend on that one lakefront or not. :)

How do you know 🤔 I am interested. If you're talking on a hill, you must mean some of the old houses. "Historic" is mainly 4th street downtown.

All that said, it is my hometown and really don't want to live anywhere else. It is where my family and friends are. I've been lucky to do what I like here for an occupation.

Yes, we suck, but we like our special kind of suck.

Or like I like to say, yeah, it's a shithole, but it's our shithole.

Rainman, you can also just skip North Dakota.

No sane person would live there.

Thanks for your consideration.

Not anymore that the oil jobs have dried up. Thanks Obama!

My brother worked and lived there while finishing up school like a decade ago, I had a weekend there visiting where I came away pretty impressed. I happened to hit it off with one of his coworkers and crashed at her place and walked back in the morning, they both had cool old character type places and were a few blocks away. Admittedly a tiny sample size in area and time, but I was fairly blown away by that little hood on the hill.

Cool man, which school? Assuming Morningside college.

Yes, I like it here.

Taxes on Rapid House are insane

Nope. I'm taking the 50K and staying where I live.

My next place will be the "empty nester" home so all of these would be expensive cavernous homes with nobody in them except for twice a year. unless I become a rancher, which is appealing but nope.

BTW that 1905 Pierre home the must have screwed up the SF. 13 bedrooms and 2290 square feet?
