@e530b90a: If the amount of US dollars remained fixed to the same amount as in 1913 and no more dollars were ever printed, the price of a house today would be difficult to estimate. However, we can use the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to adjust the 1913 price of a house for inflation and get an idea of what it would be worth today.
According to the CPI Inflation Calculator, the inflation rate from 1913 to 2021 is approximately 2,559.4%. This means that the $3,395 average price of a home in 1913 would be equivalent to approximately $87,000 in today's dollars. However, it's important to note that this is just an estimate and does not take into account other factors that could affect the price of a home, such as changes in the housing market or the economy.
