      100k was pretty doable for workers where my dad lived. 200k is a stretch, basically destroys the “expendable” portion of a budget there. The 200k was near to Disney (within an hour), and pay was somewhat higher, so kinda doable for a lower-middle class person. 400k isn’t doable for anyone but those interested in landlording. Monthly payments are higher then rents, and rents are already barely doable.
