Me and my fiance are looking into buying our first place. He wants a condo and I want a house. What are the pros and cons of each? We have no kids yet. We only have a pet seahorse.

All depends on what price range and in what condo community you wish to settle. House you have all maintenance expenses inside and out. In a condo you have all inside expenses but must pay a maintenance fee for all outside maintenance which is at the discretion of the board of the condo made up of its residents.A good condo association will set aside part of the maintenance fee for large projects like pool maintenance,painting,reroofing etc.

niether, dont buy a condo nor a house, right now the best thing to do is RENT. with the lumping housing market sucking our economy's blood, and based on the financial district the next year is not looking too good either, rent the house, or rent the condo, im pretty sure you dont have the money to pay off either even if you do paying off is for losers, you gonna have to make the monthly payment anyway right? why not rent untill the situation gets better, think hard about this.

House.
With a condo there are still monthly maintenace fees which you have no control over. But you still have to pay for your own plumbing ect.

I prefer house because it is much cheaper then condo.
