How much did your first house cost

[crookesey 631]

Still don't understand the prices in the U.K the price for lumber being the same the world over,Vancover apart where its a land problem for the rest can still have a new 4bed built in a quality spot for less than150,00 pounds two yrs ago now i bought a nice ranch to retire in ,by the lake two bath 4 bed for 70,00 was the best move I ever made

 

And now that you've moved in as Canadian Boob Ogling Champion you can probably pick one up for half the price.
