Excellent video!

Townhouses are better than condos that are flats and stacked. Lived in it all and enjoyed townhouses more due to less maintenance worries. Single family homes have been nice, but I am always feeling stressed about something going wrong.

Must not be lucrative to build neighborhoods of smaller garden bungalows in the 100-200k range anymore. It is needed for all ages

I live in an hoa community so far nothing bad happened for 3 years straight. But i can assure you for new comers I would highly recommend you to avoid just in case u actually do deal with an issue with them 👍

Sounds like busy body world! Pass...

fuck hoa wouldnt be part of that

HOA gets out of hand They think they're better than anybody they can't be touched Sing too many videos don't want nothing to do with them

How about if your neighbor is doing something you don’t like, you be a man and ask them to fix it, help them fix it or better yet, mind your own damn business.

I’m in DC. What am I looking at in my situation?

I prefer a single family home, always. But… we fell in love with a beautiful, new construction townhome in a gated community. 2 car parking space, garage, lake view at 1,673 sq ft. We love that it’s low maintenance and it’s a wonderful upgrade from a 2B 2B apt. Its just my husband, me, and our 1 year old. It’s really just what works for you.

HOA is disease 🦠 Cancer ♋️ That’s all you need to know

I like the ding

Thank you very informative👌🏾

Where is the pre approval form?

Great video

My first home I owned was a garden style condo, and it was a great starter home, as it was brand new and I never had to do any major repairs in the 9 years I was there. I also didn't have to worry about snow clean up, or garden work etc. I think it's up to the individual, as to which is better, a SFH or condo, as was said in the video. A couple of the most irritating parts of the condo was, having to listen to my neighbors' noise, both beside me and above. I do not recommend buying a garden style condo, unless it is on the top floor and there is an elevator! Also the condo association were a bunch of Karens with nothing better to do than look for rule breakers, but when you had a complaint they barely answered the phone. I eventually started adding "Penitentiary" to the name of our condo development on any paperwork I had to fill out and return to them! I got fined 50.00 a day for not mailing back an information form,, which I felt was an invasion of my privacy, it ended up being 800.00, and it was ridiculous. Got fined 50.00 a day for having a pumpkin on my FIRST FLOOR balcony, and got letters stating I needed to remove my flowers because they had a couple of dead buds on them. So if you like privacy, and freedom, and you don't want to be treated like a child in your own home, don't buy a condo, because not only will the association be in your business, but you are on top of your neighbors, and there are prudes all over the place looking for reasons to complain about you. Another thing to be concerned about is condo fees, they only go up, and whether or not your association has a healthy reserve. You can get this paperwork and look it over. Know that when you buy a condo, although you may not have as many expensive outside projects, they can charge an assessment which can be very costly. I have no regrets about the condo, it was a great starter home as I said and I learned a lot about home ownership in a more controlled environment, and it was WAY better than renting! I now own a single family home, which I LOVE, and am MUCH HAPPIER in! I enjoy gardening and yard work (I know I am nuts), so spending a Saturday or any day raking or weeding is ok with me! I enjoy doing projects, because a house IS a never ending project, there is always something that needs repair or updating, or cleaning. If you don't like yard work, then don't buy a house unless it's on a postage stamp lot, or plan to hire someone to do it. If you are not into doing minor projects then don't buy a house, cause as I said you will be doing a lot of them. Make sure you have adequate savings and income BEFORE taking the leap into home ownership, as it can be expensive!! I have been in my house for almost 7 years and have spent about 30K in repairs and maintenance, maybe more. Realize that not everything needs to be done immediately, take it one project at a time, I did one major project a year. My friend gave me that advice when I was looking at homes and seeing some o the work that needed to be done. Anyway, my two cents is do your own research on the pros and cons of both, and also your life style, if you like your weekends free to party or do other activities maybe a condo would be better for you, on the other hand if your party days are mostly over, and you like gardening etc maybe go for the house. Personal decision only YOU can make!

Really. I can't fathom rates going higher than 7%

Happy Belated Holidays And Happy New Year. Thank You Always Forget About House And Property Taxes.

Just found your channel. Thank you so much for the information. I am new to MN and looking for a home for me and my two kids.

I ❤appreciate your video thank you. Do you think the house cost will lower ?

Great video. Another problem with anyplace with an HOA is that they can decide to do maintenance you wouldn't do, and then they pass along the costs. You may need to save for maintenance as a home owner, but at least you can decide to actually do it when you can afford to, not when someone else decides you have to pay for it.

I had to shovel snow from my two parking spots and the side walks in front of my Townhome. HOAs take care of the common areas. Yes trash is included in your HOA fee but I find its cheaper if you get it yourself. Maintenance is your responsibility period including the outside of the home regardless if you have a Townhouse or single family home. HOAs are restrictive no matter if you have a townhouse or single family home. The benefit I found owning a townhome vs single family home is lower costs. I had a great townhome community in that they had overflow parking, a dog park, full basketball court for the kids. Sorry I moved from there to a single family home you don’t get that community feeling in the single family home community as you do in the townhome. People tend to keep to themselves in the single family community. In my townhouse community I knew just about all my neighbors and saw generations of children grow and graduate school.

Tell me you're reading a teleprompter without telling me you're reading a teleprompter.....👀

Not all townhomes have maintenance fees There freehold townhomes

Single Family If It Has Backyard More Than One Bedroom It's All Good, Unfortunately I'm Completely Broke And House's Are Too High Now.

I’m in Minnesota currently pursing my real estate license. What are your thoughts on KW.

One if the "cons" is just the difficulty in finding alternatives to single-family housing. Duplexes and triplexes are so uncommon. Mixed use zoning is very slowly coming back in some cities, but it's going to be a long wait. I just really don't want to end up stuck out in a suburb in the mean time lol!

HOAs exist with single family homes, too, if the single family is part of a subdivision.

Paying full house price for an apartment=townhouse

What about Townhouse vs a Row Home

Simple and straightforward. Thank you.
