Debbie,
Thats why I ended up in E Tx.. Cheap real estate!!!...lol.. Land and housing are still inexpensive here especially if you compare it to other parts of the country. I got my home (1200 sq ft ) with 2 out buildings on almost an acre for less then 40,000.00 2 yrs ago. The house was very livable Yes, it needs some work ( all older homes do) but was still a deal. I was brave and bought it sight unseen and am very happy with it
I had a rundown house across the street from me. This guy bought it and the 3 acres it sits on for 15,000.00. He spent about another 25,000.00 redoing it..Its nothing fancy, just a 2 bedroom, one bath home (about 1000 sq feet) on 3 acres and he got it for 40,000.00 when it was all said and done. Not to shabby of a deal..
Just be patient and a deal will show up.
