I have some sympathy for these folks. I lost money on a house I bought in 1985 or 1986 in Plano and sold in late 1987 when I took a job out of state. No fun to be the seller and have to write a check at the closing table.This is absolutely insane:

Since DOGE began discussing mass layoffs, the median home price in Washington DC has FALLEN by -$139,000.
In 30 days, nearly 4,000 homes have been listed for sale in and around Washington DC.
What is happening? Let us explain.

Given how fast the market has moved on housing as long as they have owned for a little while most are probably just fine.
Disagree
Market is in a free fall.
Same in parts of Florida.
If they bought 18 months ago they are likely fine and the "loss" is the loss of equity position. If they bought pre 2020 they should be really good. RE, in general, is overvalued right now.
And the market in Florida has shifted but it's damned sure not in free fall. If it was I would be posting from my place in Miami with a backyard pool and not from the living room while it's rapidly snowing out lol
Yeah I want a place in the Cuban part of Florida not the meth part of Florida lol (sorry I couldn't resist).
Tampa also has been destroyed a couple times in recent memory which can hurt values.
So I hate to be "that guy" but that's near impossible to answer. Best depends on what you like and what you want to do. It probably also depends on what you want for your million dollars.
Coral Gables is nice but it would be hard to get there for a million.
Take Old Cutler Rd south from Gables Estates to Cutler there are hundreds of homes that anyone would be proud to own.
Coconut Grove is historic and anything near Viscaya is quite nice.
Brickell is the younger part of Miami but that's downtown living a lot like NYC. Very walkable and there's a lot of stuff there. Would be a sky rise or a condo but a million would go a long way in most buildings.
Miami Shores/Biscayne Park is great money for value. Very suburban but still close to the water, you can be in Surfside really quickly.
Aventura is like DFW- specifically the Plano(ish) area. High end stuff everywhere. Pretty close Sunny Isles. Could easily get a realllly nice condo there for a million.
If money is no object Bal Harbour but you're not getting anything there for a million that's worth owning (in general). You're also across the causeway/intercoastal so if the water comes to you that could be a problem.
OK then.
1.5 million
Condo or townhouse gated
I do appreciate your time and will not ask any more questions.
Just DM me. I doubt anyone else here cares and no one likes clutter.
Would be a disappointing move by Cotton. @ElbridgeColby is the sort of leader we need to reform DOD. https://t.co/MVvIWeROiK

After being disrespected by the Canadian crowd, Team USA chose violence. They bullied the Canadian team for 60 minutes. They played a vicious brand of inspired hockey, and after Dylan Larkin gave them a 2-1 lead in the second period, they smothered the Canadians with tenacious checking and stellar goaltending. Team Canada had no answers.

This might be the biggest fraud in history.
This doesn't include the potential fraud from fake beneficiaries below age 100 (e.g., people in their 70s/80s/90s). By my math and adjusting for a normalized age distribution, this could bring the total amount of fraud to $793B per year. pic.twitter.com/Wqmab7mOW1

Biggest fraud of all being conducted by the American people. Rough estimates of fraudulent SS payments is somewhere around 250-300 Billion a year. LOL at 15+ million Americans over the age of 109.william said:

Same with frauduleant disability payments.
Will be interesting to see how much is fraud and how much is a lack of reconciliation with death records. How many are going to accounts to nowhere or never leaving the Treasury.

What do you do with the 80 year old lady whose husband died and she just used the money? Lock her up?
People seem real quick to go to Fraud now days. Mother in Law in Hospice and meds were not available Sister in Law screaming about fraud. How about waiting to see if you get a credit or mistake was made. Doesn't she realize that when she goes back to COL these people will be the ones taking care of her mother? Sure bet being accused of fraud will endear her to the staff.
DOGE is seeking help from the public! Please DM this account with insights on finding and fixing waste, fraud and abuse relating to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We're not worried about your bleeding heart 'what-ifs'. We're worried about fraud that is being found everywhere in massive quantities.
The Social Security Administration has never been known for efficiency in solving issues in their purview. Who knows how many accounts are simply unresolved issues because no one complained and it went unnoticed or forgotten or ignored..
If these are survivor benefits vs direct payments to the dead (unreported to SS), then I'm worried about the Musk team's algorithms on everything then.FLBear5630 said:Will be interesting to see how much is fraud and how much is a lack of reconciliation with death records.

That could be said of every government bureaucracy. None has a record of integrity or efficiency. Instead, they all have a record of just the opposite. We always knew it was a problem but never how extensive. DOGE is doing heroic work uncovering massive amounts of waste, fraud, & abuse. And they are just getting started. Expect the revelations to continue and even accelerate. Expect to be very angry when you find how much we all have been ripped off as taxpayers and consumers. All of these crimes have had a huge cumulative iliac ton the economy and it's all negative. The $36 trillion national debt is only a small part of a much bigger problem.
We are finding out what happens with govt programs:
1. They ALWAYS invite lots of fraud & abuse.
2. The taxpayers ALWAYS get robbed even more.
3. The bureaucrats are more interested in their jobs & pensions so they cover it up.
ALWAYS
It is a feature not a bug.

We withdrew missiles from Turkey in 1963 (and from Italy as well) a smart policy that all American Presidents after that followed course on.

I think I've mentioned this before on here, but when Russia invaded, our extended family was discussing it...
I said, I'm 100% not for Russia invading countries. But I'm not for Ukraine either - it is ground zero for Biden's and the left's money laundering.
I do feel for the people of Ukraine, but I this is not the line in the sand I'd draw.

Yes, we got something in return. Tell me what we're getting in return here? We've seen floated, no Ukraine NATO, no troops in Ukraine, invite back into G7, reduced sanctions, offering to cut our military, and now troop withdrawals in the Baltics.

Try the rest of Europe having to step up.
How does letting them back into the G7 and reducing sanctions equate to Europe stepping up? Are you guys this obtuse?Married A Horn said:ATL Bear said:Yes, we got something in return.

1. "Yes, we got something in return. Tell me what we're getting in return here?".... No missiles have been withdrawn for the Baltic States (despite your premature freak out)
Its a negotiation...lets see what we get for possibly taking them out of the Baltics and redeploying them to Poland or Finland.
2. "no Ukraine NATO, no troops in Ukraine"....well that was never going to happen. Biden's administration admitted that....which just brings up why we spent billions and strung this war out for years if NATO membership was always off the table anyway. But that is a discussion for another day.
Needless to say that is not Trump doing anything different than Biden and the DC liberals
3. "invite back into G7, reduced sanctions"....once the conflict is over are we supposed to keep them frozen out forever? Keep Moscow in the orbit of China and keep letting the Communist bosses in Beijing reap the benefits of cheap russian natural resources? Is that your great plan...Make China stronger?
