Just A Personal Rant- Renting vs. Owning

In the 12 years I lived in an apartment, the trim, fences, and deck were painted once. The outside was never cleaned. In just over a month in this townhouse, they have already pressure washed the buildings again. If you think it’s a case of ‘you get what you pay for,’ the payment and HOA fee for the condo are much less than the rent for the apartment was. I’ll take a little noise once in a while for a lot more clean!
