benson, someone in my building got the same deal on a condo in West Palm Beach. He saves more on car insurance by having his plates and insurance in Florida than his mortgage payments for the condo.
I have a friend who bought a 2 bedroom condo, on a golf course, in Palm Beach for $25K. He bought it at a foreclosure auction, sight unseen. As he put it to me: for that price – less than car – what do I have to loose? It even came with the furniture.
I couldn’t stand to live in Florida full time. However, to have a place that I can run to during the winter? Tempting!
“you’ll be glad to hear that this town is overrun by heat-seeking Canadians at this time of year!”
Canada exports the weak who can’t survive their winters.
Wait…what am I doing here?
the chicken,
no, from what I understand, BHO is The What’s protege,
as are stevieb and a couple of others.
benson,
I drove past one development here that was advertising homes at $500 and under! yes, five hundred dollars.
the catch; they were trailer homes.
I’m reporting from the Gulf Coast but bargains abound as you’ve been reading.

kens,
if you tend the goats, I’ll take care of the marsupials,
we’ll make a killing opening an Eastern European/Australian themed bar/lounge.
biff,

chicken no catch besides there are no job market in Florida and as Biff said, you have to live there. Detroit houses is 10K and there is no catch.
Florida is a state for newly wed or the nearly dead. No one in between.
“goat herding and wine making is looking more and more realistic”
You should let your goat crush the grapes for your goat wine
“The catch is you have to live in Florida.”
LOL. So true.
Legion, I thought BHO is The What under a different login?
