What A $1 Million Dollar House Looks like Across America
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 07. 2024
- What kind of home will $1 million buy you across the United States? From New York City to Los Angeles and Cleveland to Miami, there are so many options when it comes to million-dollar real estate. Of course some cities will make your money go far while others will have you stuck paying sky-high taxes on a tiny city apartment.
In NYC, you could snatch up a small apartment with views of the Hudson River. In San Francisco, you can get a classic Golden City exterior with a modest interior. In Houston, you’ll enjoy a mansion with a massive pool in the backyard. Buy a property in the Arizona desert with a private gated driveway or perhaps a small Miami condo with ocean views just minutes away from the beach. In Vermont you can get yourself a country home with mountain views or you can head to Detroit and live in a Mid-century home in one of the city’s swankiest neighborhoods. Wherever you choose to go, there are tons of options.
Which city is the most expensive in American? Which is the cheapest? It’s pretty easy to tell when comparing these massive mansions, tiny apartments, and spacious lofts. Let’s go on a trip around America and see what your million-dollar budget and tax dollars can get you. Are you willing to pay sky-high prices for a convenient location or would a massive manor in the woods be perfect? You can be the judge on this million-dollar home tour across the USA.

$1 million for that house in LA is straight up fuckin robbery!
If you cant afford it then u are out fool.

Stop fuckin cursing

Imagine paying a million dollars for a two bedroom apartment, having to pay $22k a year in taxes, who know how much on HOA fees and still not having your own washing machine.
tbh id rather have that than be in the small boring cities or suburban sprawl such as houston. i know what you mean tho, i feel like the one in chicago was kind of a compromise. NY is hella expensive.
Hey , One thing I didn't understand, could you please tell me " do you have to pay those $22k per year in addition to a million ? , If yes , for what ? , please tell !
@@SomeDSquares I suppose it depends on what stage of life you are in. Personally, I like living in the burbs 15 minutes from downtown and not having someone pissing in my doorstep. Have a nice big back yard and no HOA fees.
@@SomeDSquares Houston is not well designed and proned to flooding
Plus loan interest. It's insane.
Hope whoever is reading this accomplishes financial FREEDOM, wealth, and is blessed with true happiness!
Amen brother, wish you same
To you lol
Same to you
Right back at you 🙏🏽🙌🏾

The LA fixer upper had my mouth on the floor…ain’t no way😅😅😅
Yeah that was crazy. If I’m paying a million plus I’m not trying to fix shit.
Good thing he didn’t show you what one in Silicon Valley will look like
There’s way better houses than that in CA (LA area even) for under a million this dude just a hater
another fixer in Walnut Creek, CA just sold for $1mill. crazyy
Not crazy considering how much profit can be made. You buy for $1M and sell for $10M after a $5M renovation.
Need a part two with a lot more mid-west towns of all sizes.
It'll get redundant, I think Indianapolis was a good example of most
Hey whoever that is listening and reading this your days will be filled with great joy and love enjoy your quarantined be blessed
Rest of the houses: literally mansions
L.A house:Franklin's old safe house
but you're in LOS ANGELES its all about location ... I wouldn't leave California for any other state IDGF how much cheaper a home is cheap comes with BORING...
@@bmgvids Good, there are already too many Californians flooding my state driving up taxes as it is

I have a mansion in Romania and it only costs me about 300 euros (350-400 dollars) a year in taxes. And the cost of life is very low compared to the US, especially when it comes down to health care and facilities (water, electricity, natural gas, etc). And to the surprise of many, I can ensure you there is everything you need and more in this country - from IPhones to cars, you can get the same things here than in the US, and even better sometimes since unlike in the US, a lot of European made products can be found. And pretty much everybody knows English.
It is true that the average wage in the US is around 50k a year, while in Romania it is only the equivalent of around 20k, but there are sectors which pay as much as in the US if not more (IT, certain fields of pharmaceutics, insurance, banking, etc). And with the online trend spreading more and more, I am for example earning my wage in Switzerland, while working from home in Romania and enjoying a way better lifestyle than most people. In my opinion, as long as there is no attachment to any particular place, people should give such affordable places a try.
my shoes cost more....bruh
@@user-qb7ue4uj6r my home in minnesota is $82k a year in taxes, i own a nearly 8,000 sqft house and my shoes are the travis scott jordans, idk its the fragment x whatever its called. Brown, blue and white color.
Great tour!
Many welcoming homes.
I can't help but point out every section of the continental US was shown, except for the PNW.
That last home makes me question why someone needs that many fireplaces on just 1 floor alone. Definitely a fixer upper that would need to be gutted.
Same
It looks like a very old house and back then they had a fire place in every room if you were rich enough to heat the entire house
That was my favorite home i would keep it with all the fireplaces lol.
it's an old house that predates modern heating systems. that house is probably better built than any of the other newer ones.
I'd rather buy a house in a country with no property taxes.
No property taxes you dreamin🤣

Oh I thought u meant the United States can't escape taxes here

Thank you! Love the laughs😃
Holy Crap! A million in Detroit can really buy you an awesome estate!! I'm keeping that in mind, but that joint in Indianapolis is AMAZING!!! So much for a great price!!
Literally clicked the video saying “If Indy is on here, it’s going to be a mansion.”
It’s crazy how far your money goes in Indiana.
It depends where in Indy. greenwood or carmel
It's cheap because.........who wants to live in Indiana?????
@@thereaperzcrew Have you ever lived in Indiana? I’ve lived a lot of places and traveled a ton. Carmel, Indiana would be in my top 10 places to live, easily.
No cap!! The Richest is now my favorite vloger!!✌️
This is actually a really good informational video! I am looking to move some place I can get the most space for my money. Plus knowing the property taxes is really good. People loses their property because of property taxes. Thank you for this!
Move to Europe. I live in the Netherlands and have a home with construction we did for about 1.000.000 euro. Got all and more of what they've shown here and property taxes are not even worth mentioning. Go to places like spain or Italy or Portugal etc and you can get such homes for halve the price
Surprised that Los Angeles property taxes were actually quite low
When did a house that's 5,000 square feet or less become a mansion? People in real estate use the words Mansion or estate so loosely. To me a "mansion" is a 10,000 sqft plus house that sits on a decent amount of land and has all the amenities. And an estate would be more along the lines of a house that sits behind large private gates with a long driveway leading up to a huge towering house that sits on several acres of land that looks like a golf course / upscale country club set up. Not a small old outdated 3,000 sqft house or an old small apartment.
By definition its greater than 6000-7000 square feet. 10k square feet is ridiculously huge
@@prolificgroup9182 It is actually anything over 8,000 ft.²
Mansion to me is 100 rooms with 3 golf courses and own shopping complex. Plus dock for 2 yachts and private jet
Because everyone wants to own a "mansion" so real estate brokers have been lowering the standards of the term to try to sell more houses that are just below actual mansions
by definition near or above 1million usd, which in other countries 1 million usd outside usa enough to build incredibly 20k square feet house.
Nashville and Arizona houses are definitely my favorite
$1M in Knoxville TN and you can buy ten homes. Rent out 9 and your set for life.
4:06 Phoenix, AZ mansion is just gorgeous!
The only downfall would be the blazing summer heat..
Same with Vegas in the summer
It ain't that bad
same. i would get tired of the heat and I'm extremely happy to live in a place where in the summer its pretty hot but in the winter is pretty cold too. the feeling is so good once you get snow and then once summer comes in.
they didnt say how much the HOA fees were either.
It is that bad. I hate the 8 months a year it’s hot here
That Cleveland place looks like a fun house
In my country, France, for a million dollars I’ll get a 70-90 sq.m. Flat in Paris, Nice or other « expensive » towns, and up to a castle in more remote parts of the country.
I would love to see one of these videos about different countries. Maybe you can do the most expensive city in the country or the capital city.
Absolutely. Show what you'd get in the UK, Australia, Canada, NZ, and European cities. And do not just lazily pick one capital tourist city, but show the full range.
@@TiffyVella1 The full range is important. You could pay 1 million for a house in LA and get a crumby one, or a really nice one - depending on the location within LA. I imagine the same goes for all major cities worldwide.
Phoenix, Vegas, Houston, and Indy had fantastic deals
The view from the Virginia property looks amazing.
In Dallas I live in a above average neighborhood but we have this section called the “hilltops” and theres a few houses over 1m that are nice 5 bed 2-3 bath houses.
yeah that house they showed in houston was not ideal for texas. you can get a lot more house for 1 mill in texas. that is a 300k home in dallas depending on the neighborhood
@@frognutz0o but Dallas and Houston are way different and I’ve never been or lived in or near Houston so idk too much.
I've gone apartment hunting in Manhattan and there's no way you get a crib like that -- with a balcony and a nice view -- for a million. Most million-dollar apartments are crappy one-bedrooms with terrible vis-à-vis. Price per square foot in Manhattan is way more expensive than L.A.
"Taxes are high at 23,000 a year". Me laughing in New Jersey :)
Exactly on a million dollar home that's literally just 2%. My grandfather is paying 12k on a 200kish house in Paterson,NJ.
Please make a video related to Small towns in America. We always watch Big cities in movies, but I'm really Intrested in small towns.
Moved from San Jose to Waterloo, IA. Bought a 3k sqft hours for under 300k. Comparable house would be 3 million in our old neighborhood. House has already appreciated 10k in the 6 months we've owned it.
I plan on spending 500k in Texas and getting myself a mansion of a house!
But then you live in Texas 😂😅
who the hell wanna live in texas? lmao
@@seoljipark7531 About 29 MM people plus everyone moving there from California.
@@seoljipark7531 don’t worry the majority of people in the world agree 😂😭
A million dollars gets you a room in a run down trailer where I live. Always fun to look out my back door to see Austin Martins driving around a trailer park.
Brilliant idea for a video.
for the apartments, condos and gated communities u didn't list hoa condo or coop monthly fees, honesty in some cities thats the difference between a rip off and a steal lol
i would definitely buy the miami condo
I love the one in Las Vegas.Looks so lit
Second last place in Indianopolis is the best IMO. Also, it really says a lot about the mismanagement of Detroit that the taxes there are 3k higher than NYC. That's why the houses are so cheap there too. People have sold houses there for like $1 and no one buys because you'll still lose money on tax.
NY was an apartment. if its a 12 story building, then 12 people are paying taxes for the same square footage of taxable land.
23kx12.... so 276k in taxes for NY vs 26k in taxes in Detroit.
@@onceagain227 Ok, fair point but what I said is still true, you can compare Detroit to some of the other places here that weren't apartments and it's much higher than avg.
3:56 That CZcams family "Tic tac Toy" moved there!
With 1 million , you can enjoy an NYC apartment with incredible views of the buildings where REAL rich people live.
I grew up in Detroit so buying a fixer upper for cheap is a plan, I just hope the city gets a second wind😅
One reason Detroit's prices were so low in 2020 could be all the $1,000 houses for sale on Zillow. They would be filled with trash and have boarded up windows, but I think a bank or organization was probably trying to revitalize the neighborhoods. Now with the housing market I couldn't find any when I looked.
I've an aunt and uncle 8 minutes away here in Indiana living in a (long since paid) 2 bed/1½ bath and modernized electric whatnots, heat/air system tuned every 12 months, remodeled flooring, adequate lawn and a 2-car garage. $800/year for tax. That's all most of us need ~ 4 walls and a roof.
Granted, if your the party goer then space is something to seek. When I drove for Amazon I've seen the most run down trailer trash slums and the most pristine mansions with green grass in the winter. Rich people tend to be very nice. I'll never forget the lady who offered me a tray of peppermint chocolate cookies out of the oven when I came around in the circle. :)
I live in a 600sqft apartment in LA and it costs me $2,500 a month
I love how much sarcasm was thrown at LA home haha
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL. BTW my mansion will be in the Gulf of FL..
I live in an almost identical place in the same neighborhood in New York, but mine is worth a little more, this really made me wonder about where else I could live and be happy...the Miami place, wooow...but it's not as solid a real estate market as manhattan
Dude do you really pay that much a year for taxes?
They should do Canada, will shock people at the size of the 1 car Garage in Vancouver you will get for that
Australia not much better. Recently saw a small 2 bedroom shack sell for 1.8 million AUD just because it was near the beach. After conversion that's about 1.32 million usd
and a broken 1890 house for a million dollars in toronto
Kansas City here can find you a $1M home (new construction) with 5br 5ba 3 car garage, deck, and about $13K/ year in taxes. I wouldn't call it a mansion, but a large house in an upscale neighborhood.
damn i love that vermont house
Very nice 👍
video: "massive back yard"
me living in the country: " I don’t know about that"
Beautiful house
Detroit I would live there all day looking at la looks like it came out of a dump(great vid)
Its just amazing the price point difference between states! and how far your money really goes!
Houses shown in Nashville and Arizona are bigger and less expensive when compared with houses of same size in Bangalore.
That’s because American houses are made of cheap materials and aren’t very well made. The buildings aren’t very strong.
These prices mean nothing when you're not including HOA or coop fees.
My old house was in this video wow.
Ahhh Phoenix AZ looks good 😊
Anybody else like it?
Looks like a 50kusd Mexican home
Nice
Interesting topic! If you buy a $1 million house in California, property taxes are going to be closer to $13,000 per year. Property taxes are limited to an increase of 2% a year. So , someone who bought years ago could be paying $7,000. Many upscale neighborhoods are older neighborhoods (1940's - 1960's) in the most valuable areas. The houses on them are fixer uppers or teardowns, but the property itself is extremely valuable. So you can buy a McMansion in some nondescript Planned Urban Development or a house in a very tony neighborhood that you are going to tear down for the same money.
This is why I love Tennessee
Me too. Cheap and beautiful!
The yearly tax's scared me
Boston was my fave, hands down!
Houston here I come
I think home prices across the US is subjective. Every state, every county is its own local economy. The reason why parts of the country have high prices is influenced by first supply and demand. If ppl want it, prices will stay high. Secondly, cities pay higher per capita for the same job versus a place that is rural. So while it may seem great to own a million dollar house on a farm in say Kentucky, you’re not going to have your high city salary to come with you. Now with the pandemic, this changed the game, ppl work remotely. In the interim, houses in rural cheap parts of America is great, however, if companies begin to pay you based on the rate scale in the state you ACtUAlly reside in, then you’re going to have a lower salary. For now with the pandemic, this isn’t happening but I do see this happening with companies looking to get a profit and consider salary adjustment fair when the pandemic settles down and we will all be in a rude awakening about macro economics and how the forces of economics work.
Can confirm outrageously high prices for real estate in L.A. I live in a semi-ghettoey L.A. neighborhood that’s marching towards gentrification. Two
Man, I was planning on moving to Boston. The house prices aren't gonna stop me but goddamn are they a pain. Then again, that's probably only in the city of Boston itself. I reckon $1mil could probably get you something really really big in somewhere like Lexington or Newton, which are suburbs of Boston
The forgot to mention the monthly HOA and the size of the lots for the single family homes.
Person who made this video "Find me the shittest LA home that is listed for a million, probably for land value or something that would never have a chance of selling".
In 2020 my parents sold their DC home for around 3 million.
They moved to a house ranch in MD that thay got for under 2 million with 27acrs. It was a great move on there part.
My Aunt moved into a West Los Angeles home in 1994 for $375k, now the house is running for $2.5M.
my mum bought loads of property for cheap now its worth 4-5 million dollars
Why biden sux?
@@BitterTruth-me1nl
Why, what?
The US property tax system is insane!
Also don't forget the clean air in Nashville
Buying that house in LA is like buying a full PC for $2500 just for the RTX 3080 inside of it.
All depends on where you want to live. As they say - location, location, location. If you want to live here in Silicon Valley with most of the world's top tech companies and perfect weather, then it will cost you
There are now tech companies in Austin and in Utah, and one does not need to pay such outrageous prices for housing. Austin has become expensive, but getting a large home for $300,000 is still quite easy just an hour's drive from the city.
@@geraldmaxwell3277 "just an hour's drive from the city." omg. it's not JUST.
It's interesting how the biggest difference between all these homes are the property taxes!
If I’m paying a million for something. There’s no way in hell it’s going to be a “fixer upper”
I feel that but at the same time it could be worth 2-2.5 mill after you fix it.
@@DjR3aper. Maybe so, you have a point.
Too bad I don’t get to play with big numbers like that
Am I the only one speechless for how crazy high are property taxes there? I had no idea, are they so high in all of the US?
I just came here to day dream and fantasise living in some of those mansions that I forgot to pay attention to all the places listed in this video
Anybody else just want to live in a run down shack in the woods or desert? That's all I want! Or an Oklahoma ranch...that would be nice as well
I live in the Southeast. I built my house in an Estate neighborhood (15 Houses on 1.5 acre lots) in a 1000 acre wilderness that includes 6 more houses and has a white water river running through it (the river is about 1500 feet from my back door). My house is 3900 sq. ft. 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths with finished basement and 3 car garage with indoor 14 x 31 workshop. It cost me $150,000.00 to build, is paid for and appraises for $300,000.00
What is your point, you live in a retirement community?
300k for hse alone, or land AND hse? former real estate appraiser wants to know...lolol.
@@mrsteveinsandiego He doesnt even mention what year he built it, absolutely know point to his comment.

I’m from Sydney and a million us dollars gets you an ordinary family home.
Don't forget the tax rate in TX for that home (sometimes up to 3-4%!!!), and the weather in AZ that will fry you dead most of the year for your $1M. And Detroit did not seem to be quite a low-crime-area in the last 10 years or so. Other than that, yeah, there are some nice places in USA that have awesome price/quality ratio
Does that mean the natives of Arizona were banished there and unable to reach a more comfortable place to live, or did they at least migrate like birds or whatever? It's impossible to assume they forgot where to go for more comfortable weather, so I guess they were just waiting on people to get released from jail or something. Can you help me form a less childish and more acceptable generalization?
@@WellBehavedForeigner people are different. I have friends who LOVE being fried under the sun. If they are given the choice of a mild climate, or desert - they'll choose the hot place. Some people live on Alaska and think it's the best place to live. But it does not change the fact that AZ is a super hot place - there are times when AIRPLANES ARE NOT TAKING OFF because of the temperature, and flights are cancelled.
Some people like the desert ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Cool
The Vegas house looks exactly like the house they go to for a party internet show “the office”

the word "mansion" was really just thrown around in this video with no care whatsoever.
