I will enjoy not wondering what the guy coming to fix 2 of my toilets tomorrow is going to charge me! However, right now I live in a condo and my new place is going to be just as big, if not bigger. But, no basement, which I don't clean anyway.
Mine is a medium size ranch. There are smaller ones that are really nice but the master bedrooms were in the front and they didn't have a tub. I need my MBR in the back so I could look out at the woods and a tub in my own bathroom. A few other things I needed I found in this model. I figured if I'm possibly going to live here until the end of my life I better get what I want.
I know I'll meet new people and have more things to do and a gym I can use, etc. It looks like they are finally getting the supplies and I can put my condo on the market.
Each person has their story of why they moved there. Everyone seems very happy. I hope you have a good place in your area. You are young yet!
