Where should I buy a house?

Best state to buy a house, if you still have to live there
Cheap medians attract searches. Cheap can mean weak jobs, high insurance, or a hard exit. The best-supported state is the one that wins on carrying cost, work, and reversibility for you.
Argumont is decision support. It is not tax, legal, real estate, or financial advice. Licensed work stays with licensed people.
What rankings skip
Whether you can earn there, what insurance costs, and how liquid the local market is if you must sell. A low list price with a brutal insurance bill is not a bargain.
Pick states you would live in. Add rent-in-current-state as an option.
How Argumont treats it
Each state is an option. Argumont will not invent appreciation. Thin insurance evidence should lower confidence.
