I think that is the thing living in a pricey area, you have to pay at least $300k for the land anyway, but a condo you do not pay for as much of the land and is a much more affordable option. A better investment overall. It so depends on the area. I really enjoyed condo living personally and wouldn't be surprised if we go back to that when we retire.

BUT I was wondering if the point of the original post was more these 400 sf homes - super small. I wasn't sure if 1300 sf could really be considered "small." Interesting article...
