Oh wow, Sophia, that is adorable.
Many, many houses like that are available where I live, at that price, but no one (in their right mind) wants to live here. For many reasons.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, that is charming! But the kitchen must be busted -- there are no pictures of it.

What a lovely house. I especially like the wooden floors. The 1-bath aspect seems less fun, but at that price I expect one could put another bathroom in, assuming there aren't other problems with the place.

Sigh. I can't help but think that the thing that's wrong isn't the price of *that* house. It's the price of housing in LA (or NY or Seattle or SF etc) that's out of whack.

Nice house ... at that price, in DC, you might be able to get a parking space.

I could see a house like that going for that price in Kansas City, but only if was located in the right, or wrong depending on your perspective, place.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Wow. That's about half what you'd get for a house like that here, and Northeast Arkansas isn't exactly the land of skyrocketing housing costs.
I wonder what the horrible downside is that's making the owners sell it for a song ? Crumbling foundation or rotted timbers might be a dealbreaker, but psychotic former occupant about to be paroled might be worth taking a chance on...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
