[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rather than climb the ladder we will wait for the forever big home. Sorry please tear down those little homes and ensure you provide recently renovated or new larger homes

I thought my little home was my forever home.  We don’t need a big home. [/quote]

My sister who is older Gen X bought a starter TH in the late 80s.  They tried to move up to a bigger house in the late 90s but everything in their school district was ridiculously expensive plus needed upgrades.  So they got a storage unit to offload extra stuff and squeezed into their TH, eventually putting in a new kitchen, baths and over flooring.  Their kids are grown and they are so glad they kept the TH.  It looks beautiful with the upgrades and they saved so much money which they used for fabulous vacations.  The only downside is the stairs due to aging in place issues over the next decade or two,  so they are trying to decide when to sell and where to go when they do.  [/quote]

most people don't consider a townhome a real house.  [/quote]

That's their problem.

I don't care if idiots think my house where I live and raise my kids and host family and friends and nurture my marriage and cook meals and live my life is "not a real house." Sorry they are so limited and judgmental I guess.[/quote]

Just stating the facts Man. Look I grew up in a starter home we never left a small block of small homes on 40x100 plots. We did not associate with the Condo, Coop, Apartment rental crowd. They were considered a step above a  guy living in a tent under the highway. And the folks in the nice beautiful fancy large houses in richer part of town called our houses shacks and my favorite Shanties.

Today it is even worse. People google your house before accepting and invite. [/quote]
