> Lake houses are pretty cheap too.

Anything that you'd colloquially call a "lake house" is going to be $1m+, even in frigid remote areas.

But, IDK with inflation maybe in 2023 a $1,000,000 purchase does count as "cheap."



I live in SF so a 1mil lake house feels pretty cheap compared to a 1mil 1.5-bedroom apartMent.

Also there are many countries outside USA with way cheaper lake houses. Prettier lakes too.


850k Montana - https://redf.in/tica6H

865k Texas - https://redf.in/ubeUye

590k California - https://redf.in/bYUSU3

I could do this all day, I enjoy it.


First one is explicitly listed as a fixer-upper.

Last one is <1500 sq ft.

I gotta hand it to you, the second one is fantastic deal, I wonder why. Maybe bad schools or something. But still.


Initially my search had an acre as the minimum lot size. There are probably much better deals in Montana than what I saw. Same for Texas.

The issue in Texas is it takes forever to get anywhere from those river front and lake communities. Not a problem if you're remote, bit of a drag if you work in Austin.
