A median listing price of $479,900 + a 1.18% property tax rate = a pricey place to buy.
Prospective home buyers may want to steer clear of the Bay State if they don’t want their purchase to break the bank.
All the states were ranked for each of these metrics, and then researchers calculated their average ranking. This then determined the index value they were assigned on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 being the cheapest. Massachusetts’ index came in at zero, while West Virginia was the most affordable state with a value of 100. Home prices were actually lower in Massachusetts than other notoriously expensive states such as California and Hawaii.
West Virginia, meanwhile, is a haven for house hunters looking for a bargain. The state not only had lowest median listing price in the country at $169,900, but also one of the lowest property tax rates at just 0.57%.
