Where I am at everything nice sells quick lately, sometimes 3 days quick. Mortgage rates are low. I am in Midwest so it’s not like highly desirable areas but its very busy where we are and people do move around quite a bit. We don’t like yard work or any outside work so condos townhome styles are our first choice. Don’t want to deal with houses

Your in laws got it backwards. The key to good marriage is to keep wife happy hahah
