[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my searches in Arlington, there is often not that much of a price difference between well maintained, older 3-4 bedroom houses with 2500 sq ft (often around $1.5-$1.7 million) and relatively new McMansions with 5-6 bedrooms with 4000-5000 sq ft (often around $1.8-$2.0 million). So it can make lots of sense to just go for the bigger house, even if you don't really need the extra space.[/quote]

Lots of sense how? You need to heat, cool, and maintain twice as much house.  You have to furnish twice as much house.  Why would you do that if you didn't actually really want more space?

I mean it's one thing if you want more space, many people do for many reasons.  But I would never be like "oh I don't need more space but why not, I'll buy a house twice as large because the price is the same anyways".  [b]Like, even if they tell you you get a free second entree with the purchase of one entree, it doesn't mean it's always the best idea to just eat them both.[/b] [/quote]

You should always get the second free entree and take it home for leftovers for the next day.[/quote]

Well I can’t cut the too-large house in half and use the other half for my next life so [/quote]
