Fee-simple townhomes are a popular choice for busy professionals, retired couples, disabled singles, single parents with small
children and many others. Townhomes offer the advantages of home ownership without the headaches of property maintenance.
Placed alongside other townhomes of similar design, usually in convenient urban neighborhoods, they are usually close to schools,
shopping, medical facilities, entertainment and employment centers.
Townhomes are superior to condominium living because you don't own just an apartment, you own the land on which your dwelling
sits. You don't have to worry about who is living above or below you. Maintenance is usually handled by a property manager
through a homeowner's association, allowing for more care-free living. Individual garages for each dwelling means that you
have private, secure parking, not an open, insecure parking lot.
With construction and energy costs on the rise, it seems more and more difficult to find a home you can afford, especially
in good, family friendly, secure urban neighborhoods. In many such areas, traditional single-family homes are just too far
out of reach for many families. Townhomes and duplexes are helping many families afford the kind of lifestyle they expect
in urban settings.
