Condo vs. House?

[AWD OWNZ U]

I already bought I condo, I don't have time for the maintenance on a house. I'm from Nevada so most everything seems cheap here. It just seems that due to the climate there a lot of homes with problems. I was just wondering if it was my perception or reality I guess?

I think its definetly your perception.

There is always something technically wrong with every house, even new construction. If you extremely OCD about something, you will always find something. In my experience, the majority of things people fret over and loose sleep over as a major problem in a house turns out to be an easy fix or nothing to worry about in the first place. I've had people complain that homes are too close together, yet they don't want to do any yard work???? Hmmm, how's that work???? LOL.

Point is that it sounds like you made the right decision for you. You didn't want to have to maintain a place and therefore a condo is the best option for you.

Haha, I was a Quality Engineer I'm certainly good at noticing at every little flaw in something. Thanks for the insight.

Condos to me see like something you would buy if you want a beach front property, or a low maintanance place for the single person / person on the go. They don't seem like family material. IMO

I'm a 22 year old single college student so I don't have to worry about room for a family.
