Very common here in boston in a competitive market where stuff goes over asking. 

Here's a perfect example where Boston was sued by renters claiming the city failed to inspect properly: https://nypost.com/2018/08/31/...Russell brought up DC as an example, and I think it's a pretty good one.

* Unfortunately had my vehicle broke down and had to finance a vehicle, as used car prices don’t make sense in this market, and I am by myself and need to make sure I have reliable transportation.

I am a longtime resident (from Boston in 1996)I have been investing in the Northeastern PA area since 2004As an investor, and realtor, and wholesaler here I can CONFIDENTLY say:Scranton city is the hardest community to work in for our region. 

Also, you may want to look into trip insurance with your insurance provider for the move during transport.

The pension system, bond system, transportation authority and electric authority (both still in bankruptcy) are not in good shape.

Plus solar ~$15k plus septic ~$8k plus a little site prep and trenching and transportation and permits $15k So $78k + roughly $50k for the well + $14k land = $146k And there aren’t any available on even half the land for under $350k so it seems like there’s a lot of potential.

Lowering the price would entice a new group of buyers.Funny little story, me ex lived in a mainly Chinese-immigrant area of Boston.

I don't expect someone in a low cost of living area to earn much more but if you're in cities like NY, San Fran, LA, Chicago, Miami, DC, Boston, Seattle etc it's a no-brainer.

If it's not shelter, food, or transportation, don't buy it.
