Problem is, there is noting IN their price range in the greater Arlington, VA area...

Tear downs are selling for over half a million... That's what the dirt is worth...

I haven't a clue as to where your granddaughter lives... But yes, there are other areas in the country where housing is most certainly more affordable.
