One of the more bizarre housing facts is that as families get smaller houses get bigger.
The average house built today is probably a four bedroom. Most of them are bought by people with no kids, or at most with two. What do they need four bedrooms for?
Another peculiarity is the number of bathrooms. The four bedroom house probably has four bathrooms. In all likelihood two of them are used only occasionally, if at all. I have seen some in which one of the bathrooms was used so rarely that the water evaporated from the trap, allowing sewer gases to enter the home.
I really do not understand some of the motivations of the American homebuyer.
False status symbol? Like the biggest, baddest car - they think people will think they're somehow a cut above the herd? =
But they're still a herd animal...dependent on the opinions of others for validation
