No, ummm, nope.


I owned a condo for 6 years, and I now own a house.

There is definitely something to be said for a back yard.

Don't worry, I'm sure in a couple of years it will have been knocked down so they can build a few more $800,000 townhouses on the property.

No, because I'd be worried I'd let the cat out.

If nothing else we can say that a backyard is actually land, whereas a condo is just a depreciating asset.

the market is redonkulous. it won't remain that way forever. the fact is that land is land and tends to appreciate. when you buy a condo, you don't own land. a building depreciates over time. markets come and go, but buildings don't last forever. Although, I admit in some places the type of condo buildings are built to last longer than others. But in most places, NYC being an exception for instance, condos have been a poor long-term investment.

No. There is no garage.
