I think he took a big hit on it from when he bought it so he basically is waiting for the market to come back.

the good news is that the people around us are starting to feel ashamed because of all the yard work and "curb appeal" I've done and started to do the same thing too so it's looking nice all around our place.

But in reality you can buy a nice little house for 60k here, nothing fancy but not a dump either. A real nice home can be around 120k.

plus property taxes are DIRT cheap, but that's why the education system is f'ed here. Another thing is they tax groceries.... I don't understand that....

I would love to run for office to raise property taxes slightly to help the schools and get rid of the grocery tax since that really hurts the poor even more. I would be considered a communist liberal if I did that lol

Meanwhile in Calgary....

$420k!!!! And it's sold!
