killamch89 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Would you rather have a beautiful house in a bad neighborhood or an ugly house in a beautiful neighborhood? Curious to hear your thoughts on this. On one hand, a gorgeous home can be a sanctuary, but safety and surroundings matter too. On the other, an unattractive house in a great area might offer more security and community vibes, but might not feel as homely. What would you choose and why? Discuss!

The Blackangel Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 If it's in a bad neighborhood (depending on severity), how long can you logically expect it to be and stay beautiful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlesK Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Definitely an ugly home in a beautiful neighborhood. If you know real estate, you'll learn that it's not what YOUR home is worth - it's what OTHER homes are worth, which is what determines your home's worth. You can be one block way on the other side of the tracks and have totally different home comparables. It's definitely much better (at least in the real world) to have a smaller home or uglier home in a neighborhood filled with larger, prettier homes because their home price per square foot will raise yours up.

Shagger Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Definitely the ugly house in a good neighbourhood. What's the point of a nice house you can't feel safe in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
