That should be "buy" not "guy" a home

I have a serious question for the people in Mich. I read somewhere that recently the median home price (in detroit?) was like $7,500. that is one month's pay for a UAW member - working or not since they get 100% pay to not work. So how tough can it be if you can guy a home every month?

two things will help support westside prices on a relative basis. 1. school systems... i can remember when manhattan beach 2br units rented for less than $2,000 per month & private school tuition was $1,000/month per child... so basically, you could rent in M.B. at a "wash" if you had 2 kids...

thats b/c its the only one that the federales win! :D

maybe a worthless question, but what is the sales tax rate in NYC... its 8.25% in the city i live - raised to pay off a $55M bond for a new City Hall. :mad:
