[quote=Anonymous]We had a vision of trading up from a townhouse to a SFH in a very leafy neighborhood. Renovating the SFH has been challenging for reasons stated above--everything is old and figuring out one problem often leads to another. If the DC suburbs want to preserve older homes in established neighborhoods, they need to consider grants for aging infrastructure--particularly the sewer lines which are unfairly the responsibility of the homeowner and very expensive to replace. I was always opposed to teardowns, but they make sense when the cost of renovating is more than the cost of new construction.[/quote]
