So how much does a typical modest 3 bedroom house cost in the USA?

Question

as a brit I am curious. A house away from rich areas. Cos UK prices are high here.

WOW, so in a word house prices in USA are - dirt cheap.

Answer 1

Definitely cheaper here. My brother in law's girlfriend lives in ireland, and her home costed 350 k. My husband and I just bought a 3 bedroom home with a full basement and attached garage, the home is about 20 years old in good condition. We paid....$70,000 u.s. dollars for ours. It really depends on where you move to. California is high, texas is low, tennissee is low, illinois is high, minnesota is average, Wisconsin is average (that is where I live). Do some research online.

Answer 2

The dirt cheap areas are few and far between. They are not areas a foreigner probably thinks of when thinking of the USA. Have fun living in Texas or Utah if you go ahead and buy a decent 3 bedroom for 100k.

Here in Southeastern Connecticut (halfway between New York and Boston) 2 and 3 bedrooms START in the upper 100s. One in a good neighborhood, in good condition... you're looking in the 300k neighborhood for a modest home.

How bad are the prices over there in the UK?

Answer 3

If you want to look at the famous Hollywood then you need to create a trip to Los Angeles and this hotelbye is the area to start. In Hollywood you might find landmarks like the Walk of Fame (stars on the sidewalk), the Hollywood Sign, the Hollywood Bowl and more. Los Angeles can also be a area for the whole family because this place is the home to numerous world-famous theme parks like Universal Studios, Disneyland and significantly more. In Los Angeles you can also came to enjoy the hot weather and beaches therefore regardless of your pursuits, Los Angeles makes the perfect getaway.

Answer 4

The median home cost is around $225,000.00. But that's a meaningless number, really. In some parts of the country it may be accurate, but in others it will be way low (LA, New York City, Boston, etc. where anything liveable in a decent neighborhood is going to cost 2 - 3 times that at least) and in others it would be very high (in Joplin, MO, for example you can get a decent place for less than $100k and something very nice for under $200k.)

Answer 5

please be advised that home values are different throughout the United States and vary per state and county. There is no "average" value. A three bedroom home in North Carolina can be bought for anywhere from $70k and higher, while the same size home in Bergen county NJ starts at a minimum of $700k. Your question is really too broad for an exact answer and would need to be based on the location of the home in regards to state, county, acreage, distance to major cities, etc...

Answer 6

LOL - the U.S. is big - and the property values vary from state to state - and even within a given city.

You can pay over a million for a three bedroom in L.A., CA
You can get a three bedroom here in New Haven, CT for about 300,000.
You can get a three bedroom in some rural areas for $50,000.
A three bedroom town house in Manhattan would cost millionS.

Answer 7

It difers by state. The best thing to do is go onto www.homeseekers.com and search there listings in the city you are interested in. In California homes a decent home goes for $300,000+, in New York(not city) they are from $250,000 and in Illinois $150,000. It just depends on the age of the house, style, city, county,etc. Good luck!

Answer 8

This USA is a gigantic country- but the median price is around $250,000 (about 133,500 pounds). That would get you a nice 3bd in a nice area in Texas, or a barely livable 3bd in a barely livable area in California.

Answer 9

I live in western SC. I paid $35,000 for my 3 bedroom last year (mind you, it needed some work), but there are homes in this area for over a million dollars.

Answer 10

In Los Angeles, close to a million dollars, but in North Carolina, around $100,000.
