(no subject)
so I think next year I might be looking to actually purchase a property (possibly to rent it straight away) then today i was reading about how the US is about to go into recession so I thought maybe I should look to buy in the states. Being oblivious to house prices since late 90s I thought you could buy 2 big houses in the states for the price of one studio in London. I was proved wrong today while searching. I think choosing the location New York was a mistake however it is still possible to buy a nice pad for a reasonable price (reasonable if you have a London house prices state of mind).
My question is, and I'm pretty sure it is dumb but I have no clue about houses whatsoever (like what the fuck is a maisonette?), what is the difference between a coop and condo?
I presume condo is like where Christian Bale kills Jared Leto in American Psycho so like a shagpad/office place kinda thing. WTF is a coop then? And why is coop cheaper than a condo? Is Wisteria Lane for real?
Any Americans out there?
