Why don’t they cater to the average Americans who can’t afford to pay anything over $500,000 for a home?

They make more money that way.

It is called 'capitalism'.

They’re affordable to me. Maybe you should be less poor

They exist. You can find them out in Loudoun, manassas and beyond.

It doesn’t count if you are just paying mommy and daddy rent to live in the basement of the $1.5 million home.

Wrong..I own 4 homes...3 in this area, one vacation property. I don’t owe more than 50% on any but my primary home is only valued at 700k. Honestly though, not sure what I’d do if I had to hop in on today’s prices. Probably live somewhere else. It is a bit unaffordable for most.

Bottom line, it’s expensive to build. That’s really the main reason. I’d be happy to build low cost homes if I thought I could turn a profit, but in order to make a profit, it’s go big or go home. Trump’s tariffs have made it worse.

That’s awesome. How’d you acquire them? Do you build them yourself? I’m thinking of building one for myself, Savin up and building more to sell off.

All this and posting on FFU. Simply amazing.

Get your ass out of Fairfax, peasant.

"Affordable" is a code word for subsidized housing that will bring an influx of undesirable resident moochers. We don't need more poor people living here sucking benefits from the county that must be paid for by taxpayers.

Where can you buy a luxury home in this area for $500k. I'll buy them all and rent them. That's chump change. Try getting a job.

That's a lie. It costs about $75k to build your standard 3000 sgft shitbox home, not including the lot. What building supplies are you purchasing from China? They are not allowed by any counties in our area. What I've noticed about purchasing things from China recently is that the prices have come down and the shipping is much faster.

President Trump is the savior of the USA and all of civilization.

You can't. You can get older homes and townhouses for less than $500K, but you can't get a 'luxury' home for less than $800K, and that's a bare-minimum luxury model on a fifth of an acre and no upgrades, probably on septic/well in the far western part of the county.

The answer to the homosexual OP is one word: MONEY. Builders are in it for the money. Poor people don't have any.

The OP should be asking why the government can tax our income which is unconstitutional. Then there's this property tax bullshit. Libtarded policies that hinder the success of all Americans and keep them slaves to the government without ever actually owning anything you've paid for.

Only a Trumptard would argue that the Second Amendment gives him a constitutional right to own whatever weapon he wants and take it wherever he wants, and then turn around and argue that the income tax is unconstitutional.

Niggerst run HUD federal agencies.

Locally, snowflakes use HUD to steal the federal money: most of it goes to NAACP and a little to snowflakes for "not narc'ing".

I'm surprised Trump signed it instead of calling security.

I would have called a General and ordered a strike.

$500,000 home?

YOU CERTAINLY ARE TALKING ABOUT A TOWN HOUSE IN FAIRFAX, OR A SMALL APARTMENT IN DC.

Your average government worker makes enough money for a $5,000,000 home if they save when they are young and buy when older. $150,000 / yr not including benefits is "automatic multi-million heir" pay.

And that's all the bank cares about: loans, seizures of property, and who is in the hot seat.

$500,000 home outside of fairfax, maybe

big developers DO NOT BUILD HOMES, only rinky dink local developers working under a name like "pulte" do that

big companies always build big buildings (perhaps containing many apartments - a small matter up to who owns the building) ... that is where the money is

they build what they are capable of building: and SFD homes are the dead end of developers

jealous? of course you are. these people were treated as equals at work and in real-estate in a society each handed a slice of life. they got along famously because they were not all at each other's throats evading eviction rulings from wells fargo

Well I got a bunch of kids that need to live somewhere and a job I hate, so it’s a good distraction from both.

To the person who asked how I acquired them, bought a home first thing after college and didn’t rent in Clarendon for 10 years like most in this area. Kept it and bought another, kept it and bought another. The hardest thing is the down payment, but once you have one home, you can leverage principle. Then you rent them out, pay aggressively (15 year loans at 2.5% because I also refinanced at the right time) and soon enough, you can be under 40, with a ton of net wealth. I will admit, I’m house poor but that’s temporary and will be done with all payments by the time I’m 50 if the stress doesn’t kill me first (I did inherit the vacation property.)

It is (you’re)... dufus

After the developer pays for the land, labor, materials, infrastructure cost, fees and taxes to the County, most people by then are already priced out.

That’s fucking awesome. I’m 31 and trying to get in the game, but I don’t make shit. I’ve got probably $140 in the bank at the moment, so I’m starting with nothing.

If president Trump didn't crush the Obamacare fine you'd be in the red and a criminal for not purchasing insurance from the federal government. Can't you believe that shit? Now you can use that principal to build a successful business and live the American dream.

That’s what I’m trying to do, but I have no clue how to do it or where to start. Reading a lot of books and doing research online. I’d like to have a handful of properties, a couple businesses. I don’t need a fancy car. I just want to be a successful businessman, landowner and own a 3 bedroom home in middleburg.

Yes, and the more they can milk the county into changing zoning laws and grease the FFX planning commission with trips, etc... the better.

Look at the disaster in Tyson's Corner right now. You can't even drive five feet in 20 minutes between 5pm and 7pm.

The new scam is getting the board to approve over developments and packing small condo into areas near the Metro. The scam, developer bypass traffic regulations by saying every resident will ride the metro or a bus every place they go and won't own a car. Yeah right, mass transportation is good one thing, going into DC and coming back out for work. Nobody takes the Metro to their kids soccer game, to get groceries, to diner or shopping. A Nationals game sure, but that into DC and back out.

If you want cheap housing than you have to move to less desirable areas like po-donk WV or Alabama. Places were jobs pay $5hr and meth is your vacation.

Damn, this bitch doesn't even try to hide the fact that people are treated differently. "There is workforce housing in all the residential." Workforce housing? Like people that work a nine to five can live there as well? How nice of you to think of the fucking majority of the population when building your utopia in the middle of Tyson's Corner. Cunt.

Another ploy by developers to get the county to approve over development with no traffic improvements. Put in a movie theater and say it's going to be a Utopia with no cars needed.

The guy running the planning business is from the city and thinks Fairfax county needs to look like downtown Chicago and DC.

WE DON"T WANT FAIRFAX COUNTY TO BE DOWNTOWN DC!!!!

$500k is nothing around here these days. Even the illegals can pool their money together and pick up a 1950s rambler in Culmore Manor for that.
