Moving to a Townhouse? 6 Things to Consider Before the Relocation

by | Mar 23, 2017 | Features

There are many things to consider before making a big move. It is even more important to understand the costs of things. A lot of young people like the idea of a townhouse because it is cheap and good for people starting out. The cost is one of the most important things to consider.

Key Takeaways:

  • Townhomes, known for their unique architectural style, consist of an attached home with shared walls and multiple floors – typically, two to three stories.
  • Townhouse residents usually share common spaces, such as a pool or driveway, with other neighbors as well.
  • Compared to living in a condo or an apartment, these occupants have more private space and their own private outdoor entrance. In general, a townhome also requires less upkeep than a single-family house, making them perfect for those looking to live a low maintenance lifestyle.

“Generally speaking, townhouses tend to be more affordable than single-family homes. According to Money Crashers, an attached townhome “could cost tens of thousands of dollars less than an equivalently sized single-family unit.””
