You think you could buy something nice in NJ for substantially less than Medford? Ha!
Hm. My mom just sold her three-bedroom house in Toms River for less than $200,000. And is buying another fairly new, quite nice two-bedroom house (admittedly, in a senior community) for about the same.
The average house of that size here in Medford appears to be over $400,000.
Condos.... just feel wrong to me. I don't like the thought of buying something that I won't control, I want a big damn vegetable garden, and I don't want to pay $300,000 for something I don't plan on keeping for a long, long time. If that's the only way to afford a house I'll have to accept it, but I'm going to at least try to look for another option.
