You guys know what show I had to stop watching?

That fucking house hunters show. God damn that shit was depressing, some chick is like buying a house in DC and it's like 250k for a detached house on a nice lot, with a basement and garage, and this bitch has the audacity to say its too expensive.

Meanwhile here in Van you can't buy the space occupied by a dumpster for 250k.
Keep in mind that annual residential property taxes are high. I was in Detroit at a client site last month. My co-workers (all from YVR) were talking about how it is cheap to buy houses in Detroit. We were joking about this with our Detroit clients and we did some house hunting online (zillow) at lunch. From what I saw, for a $1m house, the annual property tax is $50k a year. This is is in the Greater Detroit Area. a $250,000 house in the market that we saw has a property tax of $15k a year. Overall, that property tax is a killer.
