For context: That is a real home for sale at 60k in Utah. It is 300 sq ft and is located in a place that Google Maps doesn't work on.

mfw my 360 sqft studio is almost 4x more expensive

The middle of nowhere calls to you friend! The urge to get one of these places as long as they have internet... it is strong. It calls to me like a siren. But I have friends and girlfriend and who knows if there are any good stores near some of these place. Ugh.

The middle of nowhere calls to you friend! Big lots of land, old tiny houses, and no neighbors.

Not for everyone, but if it's something you can deal with/enjoy, it's there for you.

It's a bit far north for my thin southern blood. I'll take one just like it in Georgia though.

I appreciate your efforts but .5 acre lot just doesn't get it for me.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

What about 5 acres?? It's not just a murder shack, but a full on murder house with space for chases through the woods!

I have no idea where this is, but man that part of google maps seems WET.

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 1 points 1 year ago

Almost a 3 hour commute to work. Getting warmer though. What search criteria are you using? I'd like to take a go at it myself. Are you actually looking for murder houses? I haven't tried that yet. Hoping for at least 10 acres and no neighbors for a mile or better.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Haha that's funny.

I'm just doing houses, minus price of 1000 to avoid people listing by $1, then sort by price.

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 1 points 1 year ago

Fair. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

[-] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

How much do you think land costs?

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I mean... a lot depending on location? The land out in the region this is at is like 10-20k. But some lots in the middle of nowhere with no services are like 1-5k since Utah is 90% middle of nowhere.

Where I live in Utah Valley, you will not find an empty lot under 200k.

"I'm tired of this, grandpa!"

"That's too damn bad! You keep living in this shithole of a world we created because we could only see short-term gain"

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Line go up! Line go up!

No house price go down, only up!

Something tells me it's not just pet smells...

But at the same time, if the garage doesn't have too much mold/mildew, could totally live in there!

[-] snooggums@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

It has to have some kind of structural problems or water damage to be that low. The next cheapest house has entire chunks missing out of the exterior walls and that one is 30k.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah, that "smell" is probably the entire thing rotted to the core tbh.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

For $1000 just tear it down and build a new one. Developers would have snapped that up in 2 seconds flat here and had the lot parceled up by noon.

[-] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

For those who don't want to click links:

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

That would still be a half million dollar house around here, actually it's probably 3x that considering the size of the lot.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah in utah County where I live, the smallest buildable lots are selling for 250k.

So half an acre lots are 500k+.

Seems like only way to afford to live is to live 50 miles from anyone else.

[-] XbSuper@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Move to Saskatchewan, I was recently looking at houses for fun, and while there aren't a lot, there are houses for under 100k (and that's CAD).
