It always cracks me up that we're this deep into a housing shortage and people are still this out of touch about housing prices.

Yes, $1200/m is about how much a 600 new sqft would go for, especially as they're separated homes, not combined apartments. I pay more for a teeny old 1BR apt in Manch.

The only way these prices are going down is by building more housing. I don't care who does it, just happy to see more becoming available.
