I was scared off it by the fact a neighbor controls part of my building envelope. What if there is a leak on the roof on the other side the neighbor doesn't detect/fix and toxic mold ends up spreading to my unit?
What happens when it's new roof/siding time and the other neighbor doesn't want to spring? Mis-matched exterior?
Living in a condo for a while I also really now enjoy being able to make whatever noise I want without worrying about it. Also, not smelling anyone's cooking smell is great, as well is having windows on all 4 walls of your house.
I ended up getting neither. Detached are too narrow unless you're rich. I got a renovated 100 year old house on a 50' lot for way less than either option.
