Here's my experience with apartment life: Loss of equity forever Thin walls Noisy, inconsiderate neighbors Drug usage just feet away while raising children in that environment Hearing other people's love - making while trying to sleep for your job or an exam Cheap - quality appliances Floors /
carpets that have had food, drink, vomit, urine and other human fluids ground in that were ostensibly «
cleaned»
prior to you moving in (Uh, Huh!)
