3 stacks here, but I get an extra bedroom lol. My buddy purchased some 1 bedroom, no closet having, downstairs dwelling home in DC and that thing was $400k. Could not believe it. I wouldn't have paid more than $800 for that place. For $400k in most of the South, less say the Miami area or super close to the beach, you're going to have something close to a mansion. Easily a really nice 3,000+ sqft home. May sweat your balls off, but ... beach or a pool isn't too far. And for that cost, you're more than likely going to have one in your backyard.
And the women. There are some fine ones here for sure. See above about how far your dollar goes. For me, this a great place to vacation, but not live on a permanent basis. I say that today, but who knows if my tune will change in a few years...
