It was fun while it lasted...

Found this gem today.

 

Yeah but is it down by the river?

 

Whoever lives there is probably not going to amount to Jack. Squat.

 

Fixerated. Eh.

 

I mean, I pay 2500 for my rent but at least I live in an actual building lol

 

Come to Iowa. Youd have a 2500 sq ft ranch with a good size yard

 

I’d rather live in a cardboard box somewhere that matters

 

Dont knock it till you try it! Move in next to G97. Just think of all the fun you can have

 

That's not fair, you're a pro.

 

If all you can get is 2500 sq ft in Iowa for $2500 a month then it has gotten terribly expensive. The 6000+ sq ft monstrosity the wife owns didn't cost $2500 a month.

 

A 6,000 sq ft house in central Iowa will easily run you $3 - $3.5 million +. That’s if you can even find a house that big.
Anything in Ames, Cedar Falls and Iowa City will have a premium of 10-15% +.

2500 sq ft will run you $1-$2Million depending on location and acreage etc.

 

2500 would include food, all utilities, cable, someone ti cut the grass, house cleaner, swedish au pair, and plenty of shovels to bury your ex girlfriends in the back yard

 

Must be including a lot of average for 2500 sq ft to cost that much in Iowa. Otherwise California is cheap right now.

 

$2M would be on the high side of things but $1.5M is pretty common.

That’s crazy to me. Heck where I grew up suburbs of Peoria IL you can get a house that size that is nice for about 300k.

 

Then it's time for you to move.

 

Centerville? Um OK. Because a sample size of one commands the market.

 

The sq ft on those are total finished it appears. Typically when discussing sq ft you are only considering above grade not basement, Just a quick glance clearly shows several of those houses are no where close to 2500 sq ft above grade.
