The answer depends upon what you want. Aside from the obvious differences of having more green space with most single family homes, such as those in
Belle View versus the tighter knit community potential in a high-rise condominium or townhouses there are other, harder to see, but no less profound differences.
Single Family Home Benefits
- Absence of monthly homeowners or condo fees
- Less stringent rules and regulations
- No homeowners or condo association that can impose restrictions without your consent
- Fewer parking restrictions and fees
Condo and Town House Benefits
- No need to save money to cover what condo fees will cover:
- Roof repairs/replacement
- Common area repairs
- Yard Maintenance
- Maintenance, paving, and plowing of the driveway, sidewalks, and curbs.
- Siding and gutter maintenance or repair
- Some have controlled access
- On site community amenities from club rooms to pools and exercise rooms
- Many have improved public transit service, shuttles to metro service, etc
