Lots of people have asked me recently what the benifits of living in a town home are.   I will go over a couple of them so you can decide.  

1.  No Lawn to Mow - In a town home you don’t have to maintain a lawn.  Not a big deal for many people but more then a big deal for others.

2.  Lower cost per Square Foot -  Because town home builders can bid out entire buildings at one time and because there land costs are lower, you the buyer can get more home for less money with a town home.

3.  Bulk Purchasing by the HOA -  Your HOA covers your Water, Sewer, Trash, Cable and more at Stone Gate for around 80 dollars.  This is very cheap and can actually save you money as compaired to a traditional single family home.  When they negociate with these companies for the whole community they can get better rates and save you money in the long run. 

4.  Better Security - Most Town Homes are completely fenced and since your neighbors live close by you have more eyes watching your home.  

There are many reasons why people move into town homes and they are all valid.  Im not saying Town Homes are right for everyone I am just saying you should probally give them a look before paying more for less home with a traditional single family home.
