Affordable as opposed to the Lacerte house, but still too expensive for me!

I agree, it must be nice to have Candy’s wealth but my guess is that $700K and $390/sf is not affordable for most of the readers including myself. Or maybe the title of the post was meant to be humerous.

I think the post by Tim W. says the way I feel, too:
“This is why we just bought a 45 year old home in Arlington last week. It cost us half (or less) of what we could “afford,”… Then again, a lot of people would sneer at a 2,000 sq. ft. house without granite counter tops and marble bathrooms. Even though we could afford those bigger and “better” things if we valued them, they wouldn’t make our lives any better in the end, and they definitely aren’t worth risking our future.”
DallasDirt is a daily discussion and dissention of the Dallas-Fort Worth real estate market, led by D Home Real Estate Editor Mary Candace Evans with contributions from real estate experts and aficionados. Topics include house porn, hot neighborhoods, hot agents, hip pockets, celebrity listings, second homes, vacation homes, real estate trends, data analysis, tips for buying, selling, or staying put. If DallasDirt were a house, it'd be a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath ranch transitional on a quarter acre lot with stainless kitchen and granite countertops: sophisticated with designer touches, room for expansion. Make an offer.
