At HHHunt, we believe it\u2019s how you live\nthat matters, and we believe homeowners should spend more time enjoying life\nand less on home maintenance. There are amazing benefits to purchasing a low maintenance\ntownhome or condominium and we want to share them with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\nis the difference between townhomes and condos?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.daveramsey.com\/blog\/condo-vs-townhouse\">Dave Ramsey<\/a> describes a townhome as\na multi-level home that shares walls with other homes on one or both sides. If\nyou own a townhome, you own the interior, exterior and land on which the home\nsits. A condo is a single unit where you own the interior of the space and is\nusually in a building with similar homes side by side. Residents share the rest\nof the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>No\nneed to worry about home maintenance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In\na traditional single-family home, the homeowner is responsible for things like\nmaintaining the roof, replacing siding and re-paving the driveway. These costs\ncan add up quickly. The average homeowner spends between $5,000-$10,000\nannually on maintenance repairs. For townhome and condominium owners, this\nmaintenance is provided by their homeowner\u2019s association (HOA) and covered by\nthe HOA dues that are typically billed on a quarterly basis. That means\nhomeowners have more flexibility with their finances and will not have to worry\nabout major surprise expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Enjoy\nCommunity Events<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Homeowner\u2019s\nAssociations (HOA\u2019s) in townhome and condominium communities offer fantastic\nsocial programming allowing homeowners to build new friendships with neighbors.\nLifestyle programming creates a sense of community often resulting in longer\nresidency. Living in a community with an HOA provides peace of mind as it\nensures not only a well-managed community, but also increases home values. The\nmaintenance of lawns and exterior features is also managed by HOAs, keeping your\nhome and community looking as good as it did the day you moved in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Amenities\nin your Backyard<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>HHHunt\ntakes immense pride in developing or building in communities that offer a rich\nvariety of amenities for homeowners. From clubhouses and pools to walking\ntrails and dog parks, we understand the importance amenities play in creating a\ndynamic neighborhood. Homeowners have access to these amenities as part of owning\ntheir home. That means you can save thousands of dollars on pool or gym\nmemberships, because you will have everything in your own backyard!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>More\nTime for You<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nbest part about living in a low-maintenance townhome or condominium community\nis that you have more time to enjoy the things you love! Enjoy quality time\nwith friends or just relax in your favorite chair in the living room. Exterior\nmaintenance is a thing of the past, so enjoy a lock-and-go lifestyle focusing\non the things that matter most to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why wait?
