How much is a basic 3 bedroom house in your area?

I hope you get the new job, what will you be doing?

The new 3 bedroom 2.5 bath homes in the area are going for about 550k, but with most, if not all, there is a zero property line, meaning that although it is a house they are technically sold as townhouses.

If you do not mind buying a thirty year old major fixer upper in a less desirable, though still safe and clean, neighborhood, the same money buys an actual house, 4 to 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, though these are very difficult to find.

Thanks for the luck with the job, I applied for two positions actually, so I would be either beta testing, or doing completely mundane office crap, the point of which is just to wrangle my way into the industry. Unfortunately in the world of game design experience and paying ones dues matters more than a degree, especially if you have a completely unrelated degree.

My spidey senses are telling me that you will end up doing one of the two jobs.

The same house goes for 190 - 300k here. The 190k homes are those cracker jack houses that all look the same with ugly siding and a tiny lot. I think my lot is 120x90, but most of my backyard is taken up by a pool.

Oh, I got a dog. She's a year old, from a shelter, and a Basenji mix. She has no odor, doesn't bark, and she's like a big cat.
