How much did you pay for your house?

And if you feel like sharing beyond the poll, where do you live?

Re: How much did you pay for your house?

we probably paid more than what we could have bought it for today, but that was also because we were looking in the middle of the "tax incentive" time and kept facing bidding wars... we are in south shore nassau

Re: How much did you pay for your house?

In 2005 we bought a 4 bedroom 1 bath cape on a 60 x 100 property for $369k. It was an estate sale. The house sold for $10k over asking. They had one open house and 12 offers on the house.

<$300K. we bought in 2000. It's a 4 bedroom, 3 bath, hi ranch. Property is 75 by 180. Although we've been here 11 years, it's not our forever home. Not actively looking now though for a few reasons.

Forgot to add that we are north shore Nassau.

Re: How much did you pay for your house?

There's only so many poll spaces so I had to make due with what I had...it was part of the reason I asked people to expand down here if they felt comfortable.

I didn't realize the poll limits. They should allow us more poll options!

Re: How much did you pay for your house?

We built about 26 yrs. ago, and DH did most of the work; It was under $50,000, and today it is worth about $189,500, according to Zillow; During the housing boom it was worth over $220,000. Ah, yes, those were the days!! It's just a small house. Mary

Live in Lancaster, Pa.

$410,000 in West Islip- North of Union, South of Sunrise.

I think we overpaid. We would never get what we paid now- even after remodeling the gross bathroom. We bought in 2009.
