Vertical living and privacy characterize self-sufficient living in the city. Home buyers are often attracted to these characteristics but these could also be a turn off to some would-be homeowners. In essence, townhouse living requires that you take out your own garbage, maintain the boiler as well as the HVAC. What\u2019s great about townhouse living, though, is that you don\u2019t need the approval of the board in order to renovate your place. You also won\u2019t worry about a neighbor living downstairs who\u2019s complaining about your noise.<\/p>\n

Hunting for the Right Townhouse <\/strong><\/p>\n

The very experience of buying or selling a townhouse is a lot different from purchasing an apartment. There are more spaces to cover with a townhouse than an apartment. There are also other items that you need to evaluate such as width. Of course, the wider the townhouse, the more value it has. In NY, for instance, the average width of a townhouse is at 18 to 20 feet. Anything that\u2019s narrower than this is, therefore, more difficult to sell. Over 25 feet and what you have is already considered a trophy property.<\/p>\n

Location Always Matters <\/strong><\/p>\n

Location parameters differ when you\u2019re scouting for a townhouse. Understand the value of location. There are apartments with winning amenities but are located in an inferior block but this doesn\u2019t seem to affect its value. Do this same scenario to a townhouse and the value of the property become a lot less.<\/p>\n

Another factor that brings the price down for townhouses is the kind of tenants. The best buys are those that have rent-stabilized tenants. The value is greatly discounted because of the rent-stabilized tenants. On the other hand, if you are seeking to renovate the whole building, then rent-regulated tenants won\u2019t make that possible.<\/p>\n

Loving History <\/strong><\/p>\n

Townhouses have an honorable history to offer. European royalty used to dwell in such habitats. Today, they still make sense because townhouses are shelters for single families who can live comfortably in an urban setting. Empty nesters who are also looking to downsize will find that townhouses are a wonderful alternative to condo or apartment living.<\/p>\n

Townhouses aren\u2019t for everyone, though so it is crucial that you do your research before you sign up.<\/p>\n
