Price Point
“Price Point” is a new N&O column aimed at offering a snapshot of the local real estate market. Each week, we'll tell you about three houses on the market that are roughly the same price but located in different parts of the Triangle. It will also highlight how prices — and what you get for the money — can vary greatly across the region.
In this week’s Price Point, we looked at homes that sold recently for around $210,000, and found homes — well, in one case a cleared lot — in Durham, Raleigh and North Raleigh.
Renovated bungalow with two bedrooms and two bathrooms on a .13-acre lot

Built in 1964, the house is listed as a “newly renovated bungalow.” A bathroom was added without permits, it said.
