Hello great information in this forum thanks in advance.
My name is alex. I am from jupiter fl. Original from cuba. My English is not perfect so excuse any mistake please.
I am considering to buy a house for retirement, I will like information on prices from an honest person.
I am pretty good finding real estate prices on USA but when I see a house for sale at $180,000 reduced from $350,000 on RD My head start spinning..
I found a house in cabrera it is and ocean front in a very rocky part. The realtot claim it is a really good price but I will like some more opinions.

Hi, buying a house would be better once you are here checking and comparing for yourself. I would never take someone else's word for a major investment, especially that of an interested party.
Sometimes spending a couple of days/nights at the property can provide insights you would not have.
So, rent for a few months and make sure the area is SAFE and you are comfortable living there before buying. Later you may have a very difficult time selling the property. That's my best advice in a nutshell!
Best wishes
