I know a karate instructor that just bought a 2br 2ba house for 40k, in Tucumcari new mexico

There is affordable housing out there, but you really have to search, and you have to be flexible.

I'm not saying there isn't a shortage or that prices are inflated. The problem needs fixing.

Very true, if I could work remotely I could easily afford a good size home just a little out of the DFW area.

What if switched jobs, even to a different line of work. DFW, and all of metro Texas is pretty expensive.

I spent most of my career in Houston. We bought a lot of expensive houses and expensive cars. Honestly I never expected to live this long. I really wish I would have stashed money away to live the life I'm living now.
