If you live alone, have a small family, or are a retiree, look at townhouses for sale in your area. Typically one or two floors, these homes share one or several walls with neighboring units. During the hunt, narrow your search to a neighborhood that features maintenance-free homes. Having the community provide exterior upkeep for you boasts the following advantages.

Why Exterior Maintenance Is a Valuable Townhome Amenity

1. Save Time

With a busy schedule, you might only have time to mow the grass, tend to the garden, rake leaves, and paint the townhome facade on weekends. This leaves little opportunity to enjoy the fun activities on your to-do list that make for a healthy work-life balance. With the community or homeowners association providing exterior maintenance, you can devote free time to other tasks.

2. Save Money

Buying mowers, rakes, hedge trimmers, power washers, and other equipment to keep the yard and exterior tidy can be costly. If there isn’t enough room inside your space, you might also have to rent an off-site storage unit to keep everything between uses and during the offseason. 

3. Remain Safe

Depending on what tasks need to be tackled, exterior maintenance can be dangerous. There’s the risk of falling off ladders while painting, getting hit by rocks and twigs that fly into the air while mowing, or cutting yourself on sharp gardening shears. With trained technicians to do the work for you in a maintenance-free community, you always have peace of mind.
