I have a lawn now, and it's nothing but a nuisance. It's nice to have a small space for the, now 1 year old, daughter to play in. However, whenever we take her to communal spaces she prefers being around the other children. It's an unnatural state for small children to be isolated into small squares of property. They, generally, much prefer being around other children and in the community.
My ideal plan would be to build up some equity in the house, and then, hopefully once they actually become available, use that equity to buy a 3 bedroom walk up townhouse. There's really nothing about the actual house vs a townhouse that I prefer.....maybe being able to have a larger BBQ? Maybe?
