One of my favorite things to is to look at real estate in my area and the places I visit. So I'm curious as to what kind of house you could buy for ~$500k US in your area? What's the best deal? What's the craziest house in your market at that price point? Use Zillow or Trulia if you don't know where to go. Cheers!

The question becomes "What does 400,000 get me" because there's a car and some tasteful modification involved if I'm earning said 500k on my own. So. I'd go with... 1700 sqft townhouse. 2 bed, 2 bath walking distance to the beach. Not much of a yard. Not the greatest neighborhood. But there's some nice, road legal driving nearby.
