Here in Germany you get a garage for 200k. If you're lucky. Small houses you can live in start at half a million! They press you into paying till you're old, and they're doing it for decades. I worked hard and creatively to never get caught in this, I'm in my mind 40s now and slowly I could buy or build a house. But now my children are adults and we don't really need one. So what, let's waste the money. Creatively ;)

Our family recently purchased a house with two floors for 100k. Its in RLP and pretty close to a city. So it is still possible to find acceptable prices, but you really gotta look.
