You are a single man with no kids what would you pick? 4000 SQ Ft home or 1.7k SQ ft Penthouse?

With the Penthouse, as soon as you get off the elevator out the building you are right in the middle of the action. Bars/Clubs/Entertainment/Restaurants all within a 5min walk. Classic Bachelor pad set up









or

4k Sq Ft to yourself. 40mins drive away from to city (1hr+ with traffic). Suburb neighborhood, garage, Own backyard etc







Both monthly mortgage payment is the exact same. Both built the exact same year.


Generally interested in what the coli thinks




Edit: Had to add different penthouse/high rise set ups because some folks were saying the top one was too expensive.

 

I’m married with a wife and kid and I already know if we got divorced I’m downsizing. Maintaining a house is work nikka

 

Penthouse. fukk, I'd take that even with kids.

Next question.

 

House i don’t like living close to nikkas

 

Where can one get a penthouse for $500K?

 

House. Monoculture lawn is my shyt.

 

I live being in the middle of the action , so penthouse.

 

House. I can have that basement home theater setup

Backyard cookouts

And in an emergency it's easier to get out. You at the top floor and your building is on fire

 

If the penthouse has balcony ....penthouse

 

I mean if you a young nikka still on the scene, moving and shaking, the penthouse is the shyt
An older, more settled cat will probably take the house

 

Penthouse easily. Trying to be on that level within the next few years

 

top floor penthouse suite with a balcony.

 

There's so many sexual womans that have residency in these high rises.


It's amazing.


You would literally feast daily (i'm hideous gang, so it wouldn't make a difference for moi).



But for everyone else/handsome stud muffins... It's a new project ever time you walk in/out ya building.



Au contraire, for me... it's like snoop comed through and crushed the buildings.



Irregardless though, like magazine... i'm all aboot the penthouse.

This all really comes down to how much of a do it yourselfer you are around the house and in yard work. If the house has at least 5 acres I’d really want to do it but like the other breh said, a house is work.

Having experienced that condo life for the first time last year I’m much more inclined to pay my hoa fees and keep it moving. I’d rather be enjoying life than having to maintain a yard...and if I’m rich enough I can still have that two story penthouse with the man cave/theater room setup.

 

A house is a full time job. If I’m single and trying to be out I’m taking the penthouse. You gonna get tired of having to drive to where everyone else is and people aren’t going to want to come out to you to meet up.

My first apt was 800 square feet and it was cool. Give me double that with a nice view and I’m in heaven.
