In reply to: Homeowners, what do you hate about owning a home? posted by gregmorrissey

buyers probably don’t appreciate the associated costs of owning a house. You need more furniture, maybe a lawnmower if you don’t pay a landscaper, outdoor furniture, you have to pay someone to open and close your sprinkler system every year and there are always broken heads to be replaced, appliances don’t last very long today so you will likely have to replace some along the way, renovation costs for kitchens and baths are significant, same with replacing a roof, homeowners insurance and utility costs may be more than anticipated...the list is long and the expenses add up.
