Accepted an offer on my old house and then celebrated by changing rear brakes - pads, rotors, and parking brake shoes- on my daughters Camry.
I heard the average home now require an income of $114k or something like that. Ten years ago? $34K or thereabouts.Accepted an offer on my old house and then celebrated by changing rear brakes - pads, rotors, and parking brake shoes- on my daughters Camry.

Hopefilly, you were not 10 miles from home. It would be good for you muscles, but you woudl hurt for a few days trying ot make it home.took a 10 mile powerchair ride until the batteries died out
I made it back with only 1 of the 3 red lights on. The batteries are original and are 6 years old but I've just been trying to see how long they will actually go. I have another one-year-old set of batteries (that came out of my new powerchair), to put in the old chair when neededHopefilly, you were not 10 miles from home.

Seattle's median price is $823K, so one needs a household income around $215K to buy the median. LA is $237K and SF is >$400K.The income requirements were quoted as average in the USA. It is more like $104k... But still... Demand exceeds supply almost everywhere. And interest rates don't make it any easier. However, yes in my case I live in Los Angeles County.
You are right about Los Angeles tho:
Quoted from realtor.com
For the first time on record, the median price of a single-family home in Los Angeles County has surpassed $900,000, according to data released Wednesday by the California Association of Realtors
PS: Sorry about you leaving the LPR forum. I thought my build thread was 'ok'.
My sister in law's house just sold for about $280k, what income would it take to afford something like that? It was a good looking house, everything in very good shape, brick exterior, 3br, 2.5bath, 2 car garage, 1480SF, located in Bedford, TX. Zillow thinks it's worth $346k.Seattle's median price is $823K, so one needs a household income around $215K to buy the median. LA is $237K and SF is >$400K.
Guessing around $70K income to afford that house, just based on ratios of cost and income.My sister in law's house just sold for about $280k, what income would it take to afford something like that?

Actually the first house I bought in the same area was similar but a bit smaller, only one bath but more living areas, and cost $37k.
I remember years ago a realtor telling me that the national association of realtors had filed complaints about Zillow as their listings are mostly outdated, and the prices are nowhere near the normal prices. we found that looking on the internet listings,and then show our realtor a picture from Zillow, and he would look it up and find out that the house sold 6 months earlier but they kept the listing up. So the realtor associations we're trying to get Zillow banned NationwideMy sister in law's house just sold for about $280k,. Zillow thinks it's worth $346k.
