Rent

[fooliuscaesar13]

Pittsburgh, PA. 1/2 of a duplex (2 bedrooms, 1 bath+toilet in basement), $750 per month.

My mortgage before I moved out was $430 per month. Small house, though.

[Themius]

1br in the heights $950.

Columbus, OH.

810 sq ft apartment, 2 bedroom 1 bath, $820/mo counting no utilities except trash pickup. More like $900-$950 with all of that considered.

Currently living at home for now while I get things situated (only 21) and my parents own house/land and it's all paid off but I chip in $400 a month to help them out with food/electricity/internet. Plan to move out next year sometime but for now I'm just going with the flow and enjoying it.

Exact same with this exact I'm currently 19 and I pay £400 a month for my keep. I'd like to move out before I'm 21 but it's not the highest of priorities right now.

Tallahassee Florida, $680 per month, that was with a move in discount of $50 off per month so it's normally $730. 2 BR 2 BR. Includes cable television. I pay utilities through the city here for water and electricity which runs about $150 a month. The apartment is a little over 900 sq. feet. Huge student population here and that is not in student housing/apartments. Those are typically cheaper but noisier and with garbage (beer bottles, cans, fast food stuff) left laying around.

Charleston, West Virginia. Rent a 2BR 1.5bath house for $450/month.

Crazy to see the cost of renting in these bigger cities.

[Vizardlorde]

2BR, 2Bathroom, some miami suburb... 925/m

[Cephilia]

45 square meter townhouse, only one room + large kitchen, large patio, tiny front yard. 650 e/month + 13e/person for water and 5/month for parking. A nice, safe neighborhood (well, I don't think there are particularly unsafe neighborhoods in Finland, but this one is nice even in comparison) and within walking distance of the "city" center.

It's even worse over here in Marin, but I like having the open hills around me. To break the numbers down a bit, I purchased a house at the bottom of the housing market, but it still cost me upwards of 400k for a three bedroom one bath. After taxes and insurance, I pay 2900$ a month. However, I get a massive tax write off and so get around 10000$ a year back. What's more, the garage here is converted into a 400spft apartment I'm going to be renting out for as much as 800$ a month (it's very nice, if small). So by my calculations, I'm paying about 1267$ a month, which is less then rent would be. Of course there are upkeep costs etc that are not factored into that.

Oh man Marin is bad. I agree, though, that the scenery is absolutely worth it! If it weren't so far from work and if I actually drove, I'd be sorely tempted to take you up on that apartment.

I dont drive myself, but I managed to swing it so I work from home and in the next couple/few/many years we're supposed to get a light rail system from here to the ferry terminal in Larksper.

For those who dont know, back in the 50's Marin county opted to set aside all of the surrounding hills as a water shed. So there is next to no development around the small towns, just miles and miles of hills and forests to hike, bike and ride horses through. This, coupled with limits on the size of buildings and new buildings in general means that real estate is in high demand and thus very expensive. On the plus side, it makes buying a house here a great investment. On average, house prices have doubled ever 12 years or so. Meaning that over a 30 year mortgage it would not be unreasonable to see your house more then quadruple in value.
