you can get a home cheaper in another country with a swimming pool and more than 4 beds
In fairness the Texas home is build with paper mache and tears but it is quite sad
One of those places is in London, the other is in Texas.
Also American houses are almost always larger because there’s just so much space compared to the UK in general. The land value is just so much lower.
ICE vs Iced Latte
Okay now compare it to New York
Why would you want to live in Texas ? Just asking for a friend 🤷‍♂️
You could cut that to $5250 and I’d still choose Putney.
That house in Dallas will fall down during the first major storm. Building standards vary by each state and Texas has some of the loosest building standards in the country. Also, the property taxes are going to run you close to 11k a year.
Worth it to not get shot.
As per other responders. Comparing apples and tomatoes here. While fruit, one doesn’t go in a fruit salad.
Lo get that it is rage bait, but for Texas how much does that property cost in taxes every year?
Missed the part where a stiff wind or falling down the stairs blows a hole in the side of the house.
Our houses would be cheap too if they were built on barren land out of paper and matchsticks.
I’m being hyperbolic of course but for a country that sees earthquakes, hurricanes and tornados quite frequently they sure do build flimsy houses.
That means living in Texas, though.
Seeing as this isnt comparing like to like, I looked at the average house price in Honoken, NJ, which is apparently an urban suburb of New York and the cost there is ÂŁ620,278.67
Do a like-for-like comparison.
Dallas is the 9th largest US city by population; for the UK, that would be Sheffield. So find a house in the suburbs of Sheffield please.
Fucking stupid comparison
How the hell has that Texas monstrosity only got four beds?
Texan house built in ’82. It’s about ready to fall down then.
How stupid do you have to be to compare house prices in London to Texas…
600 grand for a pokey little end of terrace, former council house? Wow.
London isn’t “the UK”. I can get a farm with 10 acres in my favourite part of Scotland for ÂŁ600K
“UK” vs Texas. Proceeds to compare a house in one of the most expensive parts of South London with a house in a state with cheap AF housing.
Fuck off with these disingenuous, bad faith posts.
But then you’d have to deal with Texans
Yeah but it’s texas. MAGA country and a power grid held together with prayers and spit.
Yeah, but you have to live in Texas.
One’s in Putney, a highly desirable location in south-west London. Well, the other one is in Texas, the armpit of America. Welcome to the free market and capitalism.
What’s that expression? Location, location, location.
London has for years been top 10 in the world for most expensive places to live. So obviously that sad little brick house is going to look pretty sad compared to Texas.
I’ve lived in both London and Texas and I can assure you there is no comparison.
You can create any comparison you want to push an agenda, but it means sweet fuck all when you are being negligent with the data.
Yes, but it would require you living in Texas
Yeah, but Debbie already did Dallas
You’re less likely to get shot in a home invasion in Putney.
I’d take putney.
Wake up on Sunday, grab a coffee at artisan bakery, little walk down to the river. Walk to Fulham tp the market grab some veggies. Hop on the tube back to east putney. Stop off at the Prince of Wales for a pint. Head back to my house, grab the bike. Couple of laps at the richmond park velodrome. Head back to putney, grab a ÂŁ20 steak chips and malbec at Roxie. Head to the coat and badge for some live music. Decide If I want to Head back home, go fez or central London.
Then the following weekend, something different, then something different the weekend after that. You know what, there’s always something different.
