A friend of mine lives in a 2k person town in Wisconsin, about a 30min drive from Madison. The house next to his is on the market for ~$100k (3 bed room, in need of some maintenance).

It some ways it's unreal that a house can be that cheap, but considering that I'm not even buying at that price is probably the reason why its that cheap.

It's not the house but the land. I've seen rundown shacks where I am sell for $1.5m because they're nice allotment size against a large lake. New owners knockdown the shack and put up a new build.
