Housing...

[pyat]

Attention, Slans!

Detroit has the affordable housing you need to start a Slan Commune, independent nation, religious compound, or slum!


$10 will buy you a cute bungalow..


$200 gets you this handsome 1650 square foot brick home with recent carpet and paint!

At the time I am posting this, there are 944 houses in Detroit for sale costing less than $5000. A significant number of those are under $1000.

So what kinds of costs would buying one of those $10 houses accrue per year? I mean, there's got to be a catch.

See kianir's comment. There's the social cost of living in a horribly crime ridden and depressed area, and the fact you're paying property taxes on a totally different value...

Well there's the issue. I wasn't thinking of actually *living* there. I was more like "hey, I've got $10, why don't I buy I house?"
