Great video. I live in a stacked condo now. Would recommend that anyone considering this style of home invest heavily in sound insulation or ensure the builder does before buying. You WILL hear your neighbors (even worse if you're on the lower level).
@@AskAWalker Sound insulation was not offered as an option with my builder (nor any of the others in my development). Builders are only required to build to code and the code is not coding. The only way is renovation, which requires drywall removal from the walls (and ceiling if on the lower level). Note: The HOA may or may not approve of this renovation, so know before you buy. If your peace is at the will and whim of your neighbors (or HOA), it is not your home, regardless of how much you're paying for it.
Poorly designed floorplan but on sure a 1st middle class couple or 2 room mates living close to work would make it work. Neighbors and parking is always a problem in these types of builds / price range.

This is great advice.
Did your builder do a go job with sound insulation?

Unfortunately, that's the problem with Loudoun County turning into Fairfax County.
The "powder room" within eye shot of kitchen, living, and dining room...NO THANKS.
At least you can keep your eye on your dish.
