Hey, you stole my joke from last month

Mine is just over $1000 in an urban area for a town home. We got lucky though and got in right before things went stupid in 2020, so that's part of it. Also made the move and investment of a heavy down payment because we saw rent was going to become unlivable, and sure enough it happened.

Not in the US. Suburban Wales, UK.

It affords a 3-bedroom terraced home. It used to be cheaper before our previous UK government fucked interest rates.

Holy shit that's amazing. 3 bedrooms WITH a terrace?

AND you get free healthcare?

God you guys live like kings

Terraced in this instance means there are two other homes, one either side, that we share walls with.

Having good neighbours is essential.
