I don't get why grey is bad? People can...decorate their homes with colourful stuff, paintings and rugs and things?

Also, that price, wow. That seems very cheap for the US, I thought houses over there routinely went up into the 7 figure range.

it's like having light mode on but for your entire house

most of us don't want to live in what looks like a mental health ward. i agree with the other poster who said the floor is the real problem. my childhood home was off white walls and a white ceiling in the main rooms but we had carpet, curtains, and doors that were different colors

I'm lining the walls and floors with mattresses and you can't stop me

That's half the price you see here in aus, wild

Yeah, that's what's blowing my mind. I always thought their houses were way more expensive than ours.

It varies wildly by location. My grandma's home is valued at like 600k~ and is a modest 3 bedroom home that was built in the 50s.

That would be like $1.5M here lol.

Oh no we've been in a bubble for decades tbh, shit's overvalued to the extreme. I think gearing the market toward investment rather than home ownership has gone a long way to putting housing up on this financial pedestal. Fuck, $150k wouldn't even get you a deposit on some places here

I like grey, but that shade of light gray is kind of an eyesore. Granted, I can barely afford my apartment in an "eehhhh" part of town.

In fairness photos on real estate sites are typically photoshopped to shit to look brighter, so it's almost certainly not that bright.

And hell, after living in landlord specials (all white all the time, baybeeeee) for my adult life I'd take that in a heartbeat.
