Aaron Ballard+FollowKnoxville homebuyers face steep income hurdleBuying a house in Knoxville now means you’d need to make over $84,000 a year just to keep housing costs at a manageable level.

Is homeownership starting to feel out of reach in Knoxville? #RealEstate #Knoxville #HousingMarket202Share

Donald Wilson+FollowMy Parents' Home Purchase Price You Won't BelieveThis was back in 1991 when they made the big move from California to Texas. The whole thing kicked off when a cousin called my mom out of the blue, telling her there was a house for sale and she absolutely had to buy it. My mom was $3,000 short, and get this – my brother's teacher actually lent her the money. It wasn't just a house either; it came with two lots. Years later, in 2009, they managed to build a big house next door, entirely with cash, for $140,000. And, my parents bought their home for just $7,000 at that time. #RealEstate #HomeOwnership #HousingMarket #Throwback #FamilyHistory #TexasLiving #AffordableHousing #PersonalFinance #Unbelievable 1136Share
