Why so low? How much choice, effort did you put into the decision?

I rate mine about an 8. Last place was a solid 9.

Lots of effort and choice, and it's exactly what we wanted. Relatively new house (<10 years) on an acre+ in an established, active neighborhood in a good school district with a relatively short commute. That said, I'm realistic -- it's not a palace (although it's relatively upscale for a mcmansion), and it's not particularly unique. And I wish it had more garage space and a more efficient layout inside (for example, there's a sitting room area in the master BR, which I find to be stupid and wasteful). A 6.5 is not a bad score, but I'm assuming that you were looking for an objective ranking.

Just a small, expensive luxury apt in a big city w/ in unit washer/dryer, etc.

No small apartment IMO can be greater than a 3-4, so I guess a 3.5. It's probably better than 90% of apartments of a similar size in this city though, LJL @ city living.

City living is 180. No tinyhousenut, but there's something to be said for functioning in a small space. When I moved from 1BR to a much larger 2BR it felt too big for a while. How many rooms does one really need (at least, for 1-2 ppl)?

4/10

Just a simple, small 2-BR apartment, but everything works, it has a washer and drier in-unit, and it's in a good location with a bus route outside my front door. I'm a 5-minute walk from my gym and grocery store, 10 minutes from one of my favorite restaurants, and 15 minutes from my church.

Would be 6/10 if it were cheaper and in a better city.

Need sufficient cash and a good lender contact that can get shit done...its not an easy process and is closer to an all cash purchase than a conventional financing. The easier way to start is to buy a house that needs work but is already habitable and can be improved while you live there.

Ty. I have done this but not rock bottom type properties. I own 2 now, my home & prior home (renting). The 2nd purchase involved a lot more work than 1st. I feel like I learned a lot and am willing to take on even bigger jerbs next time, but also in high COL area so any "deal" might be too much of a shithole/downgrade from current place. Always looking for the next one

I exaggerate

But it's poorly lit (only one tiny window above the kitchen sink for the whole living room and kitchen), first floor, my window although big looks out onto a parking spaces and a dumpster, have two roommates

I stay because it's cheap as FUCK here. Rent controlled. I'd need to pay at least 3x the price to get a one bedroom.

I have been wondering if it's worth it lately, because my QOL would be vastly improved by living without roommates and having a balcony and living room I didn't have to share, but I just can't justify the price

Wall was removed that shouldn't have been (prior to us), but only on a 1-story part of the house. Contractor put up a very unsightly temporary post until we put in a larger beam for the entire span. Waiting to do that until we reno that part of the house rather than have the house be even more chopped up.

A solid 8. Single family home less than a mile from the beach slightly north of San Diego. Three bed two bath and recently renovated, walking distance to a bunch of cool shit.

6.5. single family home in a kinda working class neighborhood in silver spring, md. WW2 era shitshack with a huge addition on it (big kitchen and sun room downstairs, large master bedroom upstairs). around 2000 sq feet not including the basement (finished portion another 200 sq ft).

this area is pretty middle class, and it isn't all that convenient - we are close to DC but my wife works in NOVA and I work downtown and have about a 30 minute metro ride in. also, the high school we're zoned for is shit.

Nice house, tho.

its a 3 bed 2.5 bath ranch with a finished basement. Built in 1959 and on just shy of 1/2 an acre.

i like it because the space is used well. its very open (though not open concept where the kitchen feels like its part of the living room).

Drawbacks: Would be nice to have a guest bedroom and be a bit more nestled into a neighborhood. Also bc the placement of the house, the yard isnt really in an ideal shape and a good chunk cant really be used.

8.5. Bought it new 2 years ago from a good architectural builder. It is very balanced and symmetrical and proportional. I prefer sleeping here and spending time here o virtually anywhere and that’s a huge statement because I am an extrovert. So I throw parties. Lots of parties. Wife has gone buckwild and probably put 250k into decor including wallpaper. I plant and manage azaleas. The reason it’s not a 10 is that the lot is too small for a massive yard. So we will probably move in 5 ish years

I entertain people a lot for this reason.

I completely remodeled the kitchen and upgraded all the electrical, plumbing, etc throughout. I'm currently expanding the already huge deck to put in a hot tub.

4 bed + maid’s villa 10 minutes walk from the beach and 20 minutes drive from my office in rush hour, Dubai. High walls all around. Not much outside area, just a small patch of grass in the back. Some maintenance issues and the landlord is a dick sometimes. Scores highly for the location.

My parents have a genuinely beautiful house. Stone colonial from the 1920s. People really knew how to build lovely houses back then.

Older craftsman in a homogenous and beautiful neighborhood but needs some SERIOUS work. I've made some minor improvements since moving in 3 years ago but it's time to make some BIG CHANGES. Getting some foundation work done this week, then doing major landscaping and exterior work over the next 4-6 months will result in a major bump.

Tangibles that will keep value down are a corner lot on a major street that can get loud, shit neighbor who has their mailbox in a cement filled 5 gallon home depot bucket, and lack of funds for new siding and even more major renovations in the next 18-24 months but that will be fixed soon enough.
