My wife and I were married and living in a four complex apartment. Nothing really to look at but the neighbors were really annoying. All times during night they would be partying and playing loud music.
Since I was working nights my bride felt unsafe there. So we started shopping around for a house. We looked at some Condos. They where nice but we didn't like the fact that people would be living above us. We looked at some modular homes and that didn't really catch our eye either.
Then one day, when we where searching the internet for a home that would be right for us, we found our town house. Well not our town house since it wasn't even built yet.
We went into their offices and we were able to pick out everything we wanted for inside. There were four different floor plans to pick from and we decided to get one without a basement. It had cool large vaulted ceilings in the master bedroom that faces the out side. This gives the outside a dormer look which we like very much. It also has a beige stucco exterior that is popular here.
The inside is large and the downstairs has 7 foot ceilings. This was awesome for me since I am 6'2 and don't want to hit my head. It has an open kitchen to the living room and 2 spare bedrooms upstairs.
Never thought that we could afford it but the builder was able to arrange a mortgage broker that helped us all the way through the process. The broker even refinanced us for free when the mortgage rate dropped.
We are very happy and no longer have to deal with those loud neighbors!
