Both indoors and outdoors,
you will probably have more space if you own your own home. Even moving
to a condominium from an apartment, you are likely to find you have much
more room available – your own laundry and storage area, and bigger rooms.
Apartment complexes are more interested in creating the maximum number of
income-producing units than they are in creating space for each of the tenants.
If you are moving to
a home for the first time, you are going to be very pleased with all the
new space you have available. You may have to even buy more "stuff."
When you own a home, however,
you can do pretty much whatever you want. You get the benefits of any improvements
you make, plus you get to live in an environment you have created, not some faceless
landlord. Since your landlord wants to keep his expenses to a minimum,
he or she will probably not be spending much to improve the place, either.
