How much does it cost to buy a house?

buy house
Mary asked:


I would love to live near Chicago! I am especially fond of Evanston, Illinois. How much would it cost to buy a house in that area? Are the school systems good? Is it a nice place to raise a family? How far is it from the city?

I’ve only been there once.

    I don’t know, but you can research the area on line and maybe contact a Real Estate Agent in the area and have them send you stuff on the schools, towns and home prices. That is the best way..

    This is probably a good question for a real estate agent. Try looking on MLS for local listings to get a general price range of homes. Websites will often provide a mortgage calculator, school listings, etc.
