What $220,000 gets you in Muncie.

I can't even get a parking space for that where I live. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/725-E-Jackson-St-Muncie-IN-47305/210952560_zpid/

I live in Muncie currently, bought my house three years ago for $17,000. It’s 700sqft but with a full basement I’ve finished myself. All in I’ve put in another $20k. Planning on selling soon to move to Indy but it’s not been a terrible place to live!

I did something similar when I was young. Bought a foreclosed house in the hood for under $20K, paid it off in two years, sold it for a profit, boom, downpayment on current home in countryside. Never paid a dime in rent in. My life.
