#2, to make it possible for el kiddo to get the best start she possibly can. Meanwhile, I can put some $$ away for my future dreams, when she is ready to branch out on her own (going away to college, etc) I can splurge on myself and not have to worry about school districts, etc
Option #2, like others have said. The value of the property is more important than the house, and the equity will work to your favor over the long haul.
Me thinks #1 is in an older neighborhood. Older neighborhoods don't appeal to those who want brand new everything...even the surrounding homes. Older neighbor hoods are less likely to have the cookie cutter homes so very prevelant in developments over the past 3 decades.
I installed wood floors in some cookie cutters and it was ''plain'' at best. I was putting down identical color prefinished oak floors in houses with a choice of 3 floor plans...boringgg.
Older neighborhoods look old and people don't like that. The funny thing is older homes are more unique.
As a designer, you can make anything look good I bet....go for where your heart leads you!
