Episode HGFTM-211

Compare what kind of house you can get for $300,000 in six markets across the country. The tour starts in the west loop of Chicago with a look at a 900-square-foot condo, then turns to a sleek Pittsburgh row house with exposed brick and a roof-top patio. From there it's on to Gainesville, Fla., and a new four-bedroom, three–bath house with a lovely screened-in porch. Last up is a quick look at homes in Atlanta, Dallas and Madison, Wis.
