[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Homes without mature trees. I prefer to be on a hill looking at beautiful trees. My shoulders softened just typing that. [/quote]
This is an interested one, because I definitely see where you're coming from. I'd be concerned that new trees aren't going to survive, as new construction often plants trees in areas that are too small for the roots to develop properly. I also like to be in an established neighborhood, which mature trees usually signify. I don't know if it would be a deal breaker for me, especially if I was looking for my 20-year home, instead of a starter home that I planned to outgrow in 5-7 years, but still a + on my preferred list of things in my housing search.
On the other hand, if I had a house with no trees, then I could plant the type of trees I want to have, instead of trees I don't (like ones that drop berries on my car or fruit trees that attract bees near where my kids play). I'd still want there to be mature trees in my neighborhood in that situation though.[/quote]
