Ths dystopian part is the cost. When I first opened article I was like ok if these are under 50k maybe it makes sense

He paid $145,000

145k in the paradise known as San Antonio Texas....

Unless family is keeping him there I don't understand. Even if family was the reason I'd still expand my search to an hour or 3 away before I bought that.

Just 90 minutes out gets you a nicely built brick house in Beeville with a 2 car attached garage on a corner lot with a fenced in yard so your dog can run around.

For the same price you can get way nicer properties in better states. If you're not willing to move you're making life harder than it needs to be.
