With that budget you are going to be very limited with what you can do. I went through this last year and the infrastructure was going to be close to $100k. But in these times any property or land you own is better than nothing.

Trues. I just see the prices of these shitty houses on the market and just say to myself if it is worth it or better off having something new for the same price. I prefer buying a property than renting

If you have any type of craftsman skills, you can do a fairly inexpensive "remodel" if you find an older house or crappy your house that doesn't have a ton of problems. After My experience last summer we just started updating our 1965 modular home. New floors, New kitchen cabinets, paint, trim, for about $2500. It's definitely not ideal, but when you purchase all you're doing is building equity for the future.
