I used to live in an apartment then decided to buy a house for reasons such as wanting to have a yard / outdoor space (wanted to buy a big dog among others), leave city life for suburban life for peace & quiet, family-proof (place where I’d want hypothetical kids to grow up in), etc. After experiencing both I prefer house over apartment.
I really liked living in an apartment. Simple living is pretty nice tbh.
I would never go back to renting. I’ll riot first lol.
Honestly even my best landlords sucked vs just being able to fix it myself.
