I take issue with the idea that a 1000 sq ft house, 10 miles from the ocean and in a bad school district is going to sell for over a half a million dollars. How can this ever be considered a “good deal.”[/quote]
$500K ain’t what it used to be. And a lot of people don’t have kids. My neighborhood is full of gay couples that have dogs & cats, they could care less about the school district. The income a couple with children needs to support their kids is freed up for childless couples to chase the limited supply of homes in these areas.

As to your “affordable with the low interest rates” comment, yes that is true and not a problem as long as you never want to sell your home.[/quote]
Not if you have an assumable loan (FHA loans are assumable to qualified buyers).
