I'm ready to move out of my parents house (am 23), and the most I can afford at this point is along the lines of a 1/2 a double. It's not my ideal/dream house of course, but I only plan on being there a couple years until I know more about where my life is headed. A few people (ok, my dad, who seems to find a problem with every house I find), says it's a waste of money and I'll never be able to resell it for equal or more than I paid for it. The people who own the other half have lived there for decades and keep it in good shape, so I don't see why I couldn't get equal or more than I paid for it (since I plan on fixing it up and getting rid of a 95 year old lady's decor). Can I have some objective opinions from people who have experience buying or selling houses? I know very little about real estate! Is it worth it to buy 1/2 a double? Thanks!
