Forget Buying A House, Pick Up A Ghost Town For Yourself

• There are several places in the U.S. where you can buy an entire town cheaper than you can purchase a house. 
• Ghost towns for sale are a new rage. 
• For instance, Water Valley, Tennessee, is on the block for $725,000.
• You'll get seven acres, four general stores from before 1900, a barn, and a creek. 
• Bridgeville, California, can be yours for $1.5 million. Henry River Mill Village, North Carolina, will run you $1.4 million.
• If those towns are out of your budget, you can snag Swett, South Dakota, and its six acres for $250,000.
