$74,000 for a new build in 1994 in Rowlett, TX. It was 1,300 sq ft. Back then felt plenty spacious. In 1997 sold it and made a small profit & moved into a 2100 sq ft (new build) house in Rockwall - only $121k. We were rolling.

1st.... 1530sq 3/2 new construction starter home in Anna, TX in 2006. $115k. Loved that little house. 24 years old at the time. Wish I could have kept it as a rental.

2nd (current): 2700sq 4/2.5 in Fort Worth in 2012. Paid 150k though I believe they were asking 175k. Feel like we got a steal on it as the couple had already moved to Virginia and I guess were just wanting it sold. House is currently worth about 350k and we enclosed the game room upstairs to officially make it 5 bedrooms.

That house in little ol' Anna has sold twice since then, with the last meeting for 330k. Just insane. I went up there a few months ago and stopped to go drive by the house with my wife. We couldn't believe how much Anna has exploded in growth.

Married in '84. Bought our 1st home in '86 for $66K off Deacon Dr in CS. We met the builder on another site & he allowed us to customize a bit. Nice starter home. 3 bed/3 bath. Almost 2000 square feet.
Just looked and it's currently appraised for $313K!
