Stating the raw value of the house will only make naysayers throw inflation into your face.

The better way of saying that would be,

buy a detached SFH for only 4× annual minimum wage

Like, really drive it home how absolutely unaffordable homes are these days. In my corner of Canada, the median detached SFH is going for 28× minimum wage, and it’s 32× if it’s new construction. My own 1972 split level sold brand-new for only 4× the 1972 minimum wage.

"single family home" means more than "detached sfh"
