Not many people want to live in the cities like Meriden, New Britain, Hartford, New Haven, and even Manchester and Norwich where home prices are cheaper but everyone wants to live in a nice town. If buyers are being priced out of nice areas, unfortunately the only option is the less desirable areas until things cool off..

Nobody knows what will happen, but my feeling is that right now does not seem like a great time to buy unless you find your dream house. I would gamble that next year the market might be softer but who knows 🤷🏼‍♂️

They should, but those kinds of religious crazies get those jobs specifically for the chance to inflict their silly fake Jesus on people who need goods and services. My driving instructor was one of them. Get a few teenagers in the car away from family and friends, feeling nervous and vulnerable, and then spend that time pounding them with Jesus.

Some religions make you a worse person while making you feel like a good person.

I fell asleep after posting this but happy I got a lot of comments. Thank you everyone for your comments, although I dislike how expensive things are this at least gives me a frame of mind of at least what I possibly can or can’t do because of it. Again I appreciate it!

300k is most people’s range.

It’s the equivalent of what 200k was years back. It’s a very competitive price range so inventory doesn’t last long. Pretty much everyone buying their first house or downsizing is in that price range.

Look into condos if you’re not willing to compromise on stuff or buy a house that needs work.
