Reply to comment by [deleted] in NY Times lists Pittsburgh as having some of the most affordable homes in the country as compared to household income. (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/15/realestate/where-are-the-most-and-least-affordable-homes.html) by Far_Room23
Solid, yes…but how much work will it need? There are also genuine concerns about the neighborhood you’re in, and in general houses in neighborhoods that would generally be considered less desirable need even more workZ

I found a nicish house in a nicish neighborhood for around $150. (I've never worried about crime here.) Didn't really need much work. Has central air. I'd say I just got lucky but when we were shopping around I saw a lot of places in my price range that were similar. Most got snapped up before I could even bid but they're out there.
2020 majorly spiked prices because interest rates were so low. Things are cooling off again with interest rate hikes. Just go on Zillow and look around. There's some nice stuff out there.
