Well, around here, those prices will get you a 3-4 BR house, but an older home. If you want a newer, more modern one, you'll pay $200,000 PLUS. Most really nice homes will be $300,000-500,000. REALLY REEEEEEEEALLY nice home will be over 500,000. BUT...price depends on if you buy it from the owner, or if it's being sold by a real estate agent.
Under $80,000 will get you one of those homes with "junk and crap" in the yard.
But if you like those, hey, more power to ya!
My grandpa built the house that we're living in now. It's different, and I rather like it. It's beautiful. We live on the side of a hill covered in trees, so there's always lots of foilage, and just enough sunshine. As you walk down the hill(down the road) there are some big fields right before you get to the lake. It's a very comfy, homey area, indeedy.
We have a rock wall in the living room that he built before I was born, 3 bedrooms, a breakfast room, kitchen, dining room, living room, two bathrooms, laundry/huge freezer room and a sunroom..and then of course, the spare room...which is more like an attic where all the little creepy crawly things take up residence (but I really don't want to talk about that, if you don't mind.*clears throat*).
The only thing I DON't like about our house is that my grandpa didn't put enough braces under the kitchen floor, and the floor creaks all the time when you walk on it...not very nice if you're trying to sneak into the house late at night, and try to get a glass of water without waking a light sleeper up (who, in this case, would be my grandpa)! But hey, if we ever have a burglary, and the burgler is going for the milk, at least we'll be able to stop him because of all the creeking noises in the kitchen!
Your best bet for finding a nice house, at a reasonable price, would be to go outside of Fayetteville into one of the surrounding smaller towns, or to find a place out in the sticks.
lol Personally, I think either one would be great (well, maybe not the "STICKS", but the country would be alright), as long as it isn't too far away from civilization...a town of 50,000 or more. I grew up in the country, and it rocks as long as you're not too far from a city!
Sorry for the extremely long post!!!
Blah, blahhh, bluah...
That's all I know. OK NOW. BYEeEEeeeee.
***So long...and thanks for all the fish***
