I'm new to Kansas, but so far I like the far east side and the north west side.

One side calls you, tell them to contact the other as you can't be in the middle, best for them to deal direct.  

I am in the middle of selling my current home and buying my new home.

I am planning to make my first offer but I wanted to know if the numbers work.Location: East PennsylvaniaType: converted four familyPrice: $350,000Total SqFt: 3,232Built: 1869Units:1. 2 bed 1 bath $565 (Section 8)2. 2 bed 1 bath $7253. 1 bed 1 bath $7254. 1 bed 1 bath $650Total: $2,665/m, $31,980/yrExpenses:Sewer: $52 per unit per month $2,496/yrTaxes: $2,885/yrInsurance: $750/yrEstimated mortgage: $14,000/yr 20% down ($70,000)Total: $20,131The bright side:1.

The other factor here is that having an agent (who is getting a commission) and then a wholesaler who also wants a fee all in the middle between buyer and seller creates a convoluted transaction and hinders the opportunity of a good deal for the end buyer so please keep this in mind.

In general, the middle and south of the country drags about three years behind the coasts, too.But even if you're downmarket, watch the trends that stick and that disappear on the cutting edge of the coasts to know what you need to be doing to stay ahead of becoming out of style. 

Everyone of these areas will have places where the wealthy live, places where the middle class live and places where the poor live.

I own a home in deep east Oakland, and for the past three years it has been used as my primary resident.

Making all the wrong choices when I was younger hasn't allowed me to break past the lower middle class.

The government has already shown they'll step in when things get bad, even if that means wiping out the middle class...
