How much does it cost to buy a home in Long Island?

Author: admin  /  Category: long island homes

Ok,so my family is thinking about buying a home in Long Island,not really saying yes we will buy a home there just, thinking about it.We want a home there because 1.we have lots of family there and near there 2.we want to live near the Long Island sound.So i was just wondering how much would it cost to buy one, how nice are the houses, and how cheap are the cheapest ones.We don’t have a lot of money but have no trouble paying our bills and buying food. Thank-you to whoever answers!

Any place on Long Island near either shore will cost you bundles (cheapest would run $400k to over 25 million and up). The cheapest areas are not the most desirable ones where you can buy a run down foreclosure home for around 200K-250K in a very nasty neighborhood

Understand, Long Island has THE highest property taxes in the US. I pay well over 12K on a 400K home. I also pay around 6k a year on heating and electric. The only cheap thing we have here is water…around $30 a month.

    If you will start going through the realtor’s listings for that area you will find all the info you want.
