How much would this property cost in various parts of the U.S
OK, this is probably an impossible question.
I'm looking to buy a property when I start my PhD. Where I do my PhD is as yet unknown. I am looking for a 2 bedroom place. I imagine there will be one big living/reception room with an adjoining kitchen. I would like to live in a decent neighbourhood (i.e. low crime) within 5 miles of campus. Universities I would like to get into include: Stanford Berkeley Harvard MIT Chicago Go!

I'm not looking for anything palatial - you are sure it will be 700K? That is as much as London!

No idea about the rest but Stanford and Berkeley will both cost you somewhere around 3/4 million.

Re: How much would this property cost in various parts of the U.S
Something palatial around Stanford would cost you *way* more than 700k.
The housing market here in the Bay Area has been going up and up and up for quite a while. I regret not buying 4 or 5 years ago when I though, "Holy [censored]! $450k for that 1 bedroom condo?" 6-figures of rent later, that condo sells for more than double what I could have paid. Though we are due for at least a small correction sometime soon. Some signs point to things flattening out already or slightly dipping, but nothing solid yet. Of course I've thought the same thing every year since.
