Raymond: How big is the house or apartment you live in? Would you like to live in a mansion? how big is your ideal home?
In terms of square feet or square meters, how big is your house or apartment (approximately, of course)? Would you like to live in a bigger house or apartment? How big would be enough for you considering the bigger the house the higher the maintenance costs? Do you own your house/apartment of do you rent? Is it better to rent or to own?

If i say i live in an extremely small home and would like a dream home… are u gonna send me the link where they send u an offer to get a dream house?… i wont tell.
a mansion would kind of freak me out.. so much space. the thought of having so many rooms and so little people to fill them would keep me on edge when i try to sleep, unless i have a huge family. a normal 2 – 4 bedroom house would be more than enough for me. as long as your happy.Answer by Anony Moose
my house is about 1600 square feet. one of the bedrooms is completely empty.
i wouldn’t want a larger house. there’s enough to clean already.Answer by SniperBaby
I don’t know the square footage but we have a large victorian home (5 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a large kitchen, and a medium sized living room). I like it a lot. We rent it for 900 a month (we got VERY lucky, the landlords are rich and very nice and don’t need a lot of extra cash from us).
When I move out I would like a medium sized apartment (it will only be my boyfriend and I). We would like two bedrooms (one for guests), a medium living room, a decent sized kitchen, 1.5bath, and a small extra room for the “office area”. We went to get monthly pricing they said it will be about 1000 a month (remember, I live in a small area and the houses/apartments are much cheaper).
That’s just me.
Answer by TigzI rent a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment. It’s 640 square feet. Ideally, I would prefer to own a house that’s somewhere around 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and approx. 1800 – 2200 square feet.
For tax reasons, it’s better to own – especially if you plan to stay in a particular area for a while. Otherwise, renting is fine b/c it grants you greater freedom to move when you wish (without the burden of having to sell a house).Answer by Witchy
We have a small, 2 bedroom arts & crafts bungalow. It’s 1,500 sq feet. There’s only me and my hubby so it’s just the right size. It has a dining room and that’s important to me. We spend a lot of time in there eating, playing games, and stuff.
I might like another couple hundred square feet to make the bathroom bigger and one of the bedrooms bigger. But no more than that. I really hate the feel of very large newer homes. To me, they feel more like an institution than a home. I want something that is warm and cozy and comfortable. I don’t want huge ceilings where my voice echoes.
I really would feel cramped in something lower than 1,200 sq feet. Once I rented a home with only 900 sq feet and it was too small.
We are buying our home. The pros of buying is that you can paint and fix it up the way that you want it. It gives a feeling of security even though we know there’s really no such thing. We’ve planted trees and bushes in the yard and it’s cool to see how they’ve grown.
One of the biggest setbacks is the property taxes. The government makes sure they get a good chunk of our money for the freedom of owning our home. Even though we have a very modest home, our property taxes are about $ 3,000 a year.
Still, I prefer owning a home. It’s our little corner of the world and no landlord can dictate our behavior or raise the rent for no reason. We don’t have to worry about the landlord selling the place and giving us a month’s notice that we have to move. We can choose for ourselves whether to have pets or not. We don’t have to worry about noisy neighbors in an apartment building—there’s nothing worse than having to listen to your neighbors having LOUD bedroom fun (and we don’t have to worry about them hearing us!).
