I canada, you get bigger houses and newer ones for third of the price...

no one wants to live in canada though , I don't know why.


I'd move to Canada in a heartbeat. Just need either a job or marriage to get me over there xD A lot of brits I know share this sentiment as well.

Oh wow. Real estate is grossly overpriced in the UK!

House 1:

US price: $195,000

House 2:

US price: $225,000 - $250,000

House 3:

US price: $175,000

Seems like House 3 is the best value, despite the age. I take it houses don't hold their value so well in the UK?

Hahaha that's amazing to read. Housing here really is a complete joke. Houses hold their value really well in the UK as long as it's in the right location. Hell, I know homes over a 100 years old that sold for upwards of £300k (victorian properties are awesome), but insulation etc will suck on them unless someone spends a lot of money renovating it.
