Question: Would you purchase a condo or a house? Would you purchase a 1 bedroom condo 3 years old in a great location near shopping, new malls, excellent resturants and 15 MIN to the beach in Jacksonville florida.  Or purchase a house that is built in 1950's in same location for same price.  House or Condo?

Answer: I have owned 2 condos & 2 houses.  I noted that owning and living in each of them posed different benefits and concerns. \nCONDO is the way to go IF\n1 -   You can afford to pay the Mainteance Fees. \n2 - You realize that even after you pay the mortgage on your condo, you will also still have to continue paying the mainteance fees.  \n3 - the BENEFIT is that there is no shoveling of snow, and the association will do all outside repairs. \n  \nA HOUSE is the way to go if:  \n1 - You want more privacy\n2 - You want your own private yard.  I miss that about the houses. \n3 - If you enjoy or are willing to do some repairs around the house.  I learned how to do all sorts of things & loved it. \n4 - There are NO Mainteance Fee payments to an agency, you just pay for your own repair costs.  \nIf you need help with finding the luckiest numbers to help you find the luckiest homes, or finding the best dates to move, etc. visit http://astrowishes.com
