And then housing prices went right back through the roof. I bought a foreclosed house in 2012 for ~280k. It had been purchased by the previous owner for about 480k. I put about 150k into it, 100k the first year to make it a liveable property, and 50k or so over the next ten years. I sold it last year for about 850k… I then bought a new house that cost about 450k when it was built 4 years ago, for about 680k, in a less expensive market. linkfedilink
