[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never ever got the appeal of a townhouse. You may as well get a condo.[/quote]

You don't have anyone above or below you and sometimes share just one wall. You can have a private garage and driveway. [/quote]

Also, what is wrong with a condo?  If built properly (our building is 20+ years old), soundproofing is excellent.  I only hear the people above us a few times a week, typically when something heavy is dropped.  Otherwise, we hear nothing from above, below or next door.  When you renovate and replace floors you must soundproof, and there are fire walls/soundproofing walls between the units.

I love having no real maintenance at all and the city at my doorstep.  2 bedrooms for 2 of us is all we need (and 2 bathrooms).  Easy to clean a 1500 sq ft place (versus the 4.5 sq ft home we downsized from).  Then again, we are a more upscale condo building, so even the renters are "not your typical rental clientele"---the prices things rent for tend to get you better tenants than many places
