Should You Buy a 2 Story Home in Venice FL?
I'm seeing some 2 story homes being built in some new home communities in the Sarasota and Venice areas. I am often asked if buying a 2 story home is a good idea. 2 story homes offer a lot of square feet and are usually a good solution for a large family, or an extended family with older relatives. Otherwise, I believe 2 story homes should be avoided whenever possible. 2 story home elevation in Taylor Morrison's Arbor Lakes at Palmer Ranch in Sarasota Older folks seldom like to climb stairs. 2 story homes limit the number of potential buyers when you decide to sell. 2 story homes usually require higher insurance costs. They have a higher profile against wind and wind-borne debris. Bottom line: Say yes to a 2 story home if you have a large family or need a lot of square feet and plan on staying in the property for a long time. Say no to buying a 2 story home if you plan on selling or downsizing in the near future.
