Yes, you can buy a home in east Tennessee, for less than $100,000, either in town or in the country. The home in town would be very basic, but you might even find a charming little cabin up in the mountains, too, for that.

Doubt you'd wanna live in it if you could....If you wanna live in a safe neighborhood, and in a safe house.....You're looking at at least 500K.
by PrettyPirate on July 16th, 2009
No. Homes around here start from around $800,000 up to the mid-range millions.
by 232499 on July 16th, 2009
Nope - you can't even buy a lot for that
by Beautiful Stranger Is Back on July 16th, 2009
Not a chance around here.
by Tallyman on July 16th, 2009
Yes, you can sometimes buy a decent home for $80K around here.
by Grandma Roses - my avatar is my real dog on July 16th, 2009
Yes, but they are all mobile homes on leased land.
by DukeG on July 16th, 2009
Not if you want to move into it today.
Those are Fixer Uppers.
by randomguy on July 16th, 2009
Nope...starts around $500,000
by Route 66Truckerman on July 16th, 2009
Not in the island I live in,there's a couple of bungalows for 150k,though.
by happiness on July 16th, 2009

Not a home on land and able to be lived in, however a relocatable home in need of renovating and not on land can be bought for such a price.
by krsnaknows on July 16th, 2009
You can buy a great house for that kind of money here in India!
by Nrthn1 on July 16th, 2009
Nothing much under $600,000 in the innerwest of Sydney Aus.

From the Boston Globe:
...
"An unidentified buyer yesterday paid $300,000 for a private parking space in the Back Bay, making it the most expensive parking space in Boston, according to Listing Information Network, which tracks the city's real estate market."

Nowadays, you can buy a mansion for less.
by ThatGuyTed on July 16th, 2009
Not unless you want a trailer. You might get an acre of land for under $100k, if you don't mind swampfront property.
by Ironhead on July 16th, 2009
Sure can...I bought my place for under $50,000. It is an older 3 bedroom home but in very good shape and sitting on 3 acres of land.
by Ed the Jetpacking Headbanger on July 16th, 2009
A trailer park home and I believe there might be some very small condominiums or houses that require a lot of repairs.
by - alluseek - on July 16th, 2009
not a chance. 15 years ago you could get fixer-upper for that, if you looked really hard. Our property taxes are nearly $10,000 a year, and yet this is just a blue-collar town, go figure.
by Merfish on July 16th, 2009
Yes, our house cost $90,000 (forclosure) a year ago.
There are 2 on my street and 4 on the street behind me all listed (forclosure) at 90 and below.
These house are all 6 years old or younger.
by nzguy.. on July 16th, 2009
You must be kidding me! Grin..
Two months ago I brought my place for £650,000 and it was the cheapest place I could find in this area.
by BOOZE HOUND... nothing is nonsence on July 16th, 2009
no and were in a recession with a much better exchange rate then it's been for years.
by Melissa on July 16th, 2009
Yes, we bought the one I am living in now for 80,000. It's older and small, only 2 bedrooms, but it's okay for a first house.
by Esperanza on October 29th, 2009
Sure! This is a small town in Utah. Housing is mostly good and inexpensive.
by WryLilt - Finally Earning Online on October 29th, 2009
The average very low quality home would start about $180,000. (Qld Australia)
by flushing on October 29th, 2009
In Chicago everything is possible.
by andybell on September 11th, 2009
Let me tell you that as far as my local area is concerned no not at all. As I live in Newport Beach which is considered to be the most desired places to live so the average cost of good home - $4,999,999

Yes.
by el Barto on July 17th, 2009
you bet your bottom dollar!
by -Icy- on July 16th, 2009
yes, any day of the week.
by royal77 says hello friend on July 16th, 2009
In Bogotá many houses can be bought from between 30 thousand and 90 thousand dollars ( between 60 and 180 million pesos).
by MyGiveaDamnsBusted on July 16th, 2009
Sure, a trailor/modular. Your garanteed to find a place less that $100,000 in the ghetto as well.
by DA BEN DAN yanggui zi on July 16th, 2009
no way...the average price of a house in Vancouver is around 1 million $
by Jadey - Vive la difference on July 16th, 2009
Not a chance.... not even a tiny box studio apartment.
by Ditto on July 16th, 2009
Possibly but it would be in a lesser desired area and probably not be in good shape.
by Over and Out on July 16th, 2009
Yes, but it will just be a pretty basic home.
by somewhere Pll loves her dawgy on July 16th, 2009
Australian dollars? No. Not even a unit or flat.
It would probably be due to (I'm guessing) 70% the area. And 30% to general housing prices in the state.
Ps Oh and congratulations on your Genius status :)
by Anonymous on November 28th, 2009
Nope, cheapest house where I live is around £300,000
by Joyce Charnetzky on November 28th, 2009
You can definitely buy a home under $100K in Northwest Indiana.
by Nightwatchdog on November 3rd, 2009
Heck yeah - but why would I want to?
by MicrocosmicOrbit on November 3rd, 2009
Not impossible
by philosopher-saint on October 29th, 2009
That figure is closer to the yearly property tax, keithold.
;-)
by crazy on October 29th, 2009
there are a lot of them in India
by L. Taylor on October 29th, 2009
Yes, if you want to call them homes instead of shacks.
by strange1 still in pb on October 29th, 2009
no way
by Sonia is cool on October 22nd, 2009
yes
by the guy behind the bushes on October 22nd, 2009
i wish
by rby421 on October 22nd, 2009
there are plenty of homes in good neighborhoods in Saint Louis for under 100k
Most of these homes need some work, but for the most part are in liveable/move-in condition. I just sold a 2bed, 1 bath home in a good area of the city for 95,000.
There are homes available in this price range in the suburbs as well. Most homes (not in forclosure) in that price range don't go over 2 bedrooms. Unless of course your looking in the ghetto.
