14769, Portland, NY

There is no one answer to this question as home equity and home prices vary greatly from one zip code to the next. However, in general, home equity and home prices tend to be higher in wealthier zip codes and areas with more job opportunities.

According to Zillow, the median home value in the 14769 zip code of Portland was $214,200 as of September 2017. This is significantly higher than the statewide median of $157,600. In addition, while Portland's median house value increased by 2% from 2016 to 2017, the statewide average increase was only 1%. This suggests that there may be some opportunity for buyers in this area who are looking for a more affordable option than what is available statewide.

However, despite these relatively low statewide averages, Portland's median house value still represents a significant chunk of change for potential homeowners. For example, a buyer who puts down just 5% on a $214k house would have an initial investment of just over $30k - which would be manageable for most people. On the other hand, if you were looking at buying a house in say Syracuse or Buffalo - two other cities with lower median values - your initial investment would likely be much higher (in Syracuse it could be as high as $40k!). So while there may not currently be many opportunities available in 14769 specifically for buyers looking for cheaper homes than elsewhere in New York State, it's definitely worth keeping an eye on market trends and developments here over time!
