Message: [QUOTE="CometKeith, post: 331741, member: 2912"] Lisak, the top floors give us more light and better views. Also it will be quieter with no one living above us. I'm very happy with that decision because we had to find a temporary apartment and our upstairs neighbors are very noisy at odd times when we are sleeping and I'm not enjoying that . The downside is we will need to walk up a flight of stairs to get to our unit so in probable 20 years we will need to move again. The nice thing is if we travel we don't need to worry about an empty house sitting around, and now the rents will cover all our housing expenses plus its an interesting place to live. It's not for everyone to go back to multifamily when you had a single family house but we think we will be happy. Our unit is going to be over 2200 SF for just the two of us plus a nice backyard and 3 car garage. We are picking out some very nice finishes such as walnut kitchen cabinets, quartzite counters, and 6 inch wide plank white oak floors so the end result should be very nice. Also we put in new casement windows in the whole building and since the building was virtually gutted everything inside is brand new except for the Graystone exterior. My pond is larger than the old one so that's a plus and we will be close to the lake so I can go bike riding more easily. Sissy. I ended up sound proofing between our two floors. My wife didn't really care about it but I think it will make our place quieter if we both have tvs going on different floors. [/QUOTE]
