I probably should have just started a new one, but I thought it may be more interesting to see how things have changed Over time.

I’m mainly curious to see if I can buy slightly more house than would normally be the case for where I’m looking. Near as I can tell there are houses off W. Bayou that normally would go quick for $450,000+, but instead sit unsold for 8+ months at a time even once the price gets closer to $400,000

Took me a while to realize how old this thread was.

I've been looking in the same area. You are buying the square footage in many of these home. A lot of them need updating. The old folks are dying or going to a home and the kids are selling the houses. Just a heads up. If you are a proficient DIY'er, there are some great homes to purchase.
