Sharingwood is about to jump into this issue this weekend. We are currently 17 detached single family owner designed homes. We will be designing another 12 lots with Chuck Durrets help this weekend. The issue of attached wall has arisen before and although none of the current investors (4) in phase II have interest in attached wall, others who are peripherial to the group have stated an interest. It may well be that we do a mixture of clusters and attached wall, although this remains to be seen. In a rural environment, attached wall townhouses do not have much appeal. Attached wall townhouses are an urban architecture in our area. Too much like city apartments. The original concept for Sharingwood was attached duplex and tri-plexes and no one, not one person in three years had any interest in investing in such a design. Later it was set up as single family detached and the core group bought in. So in our case, attached wall dwellings have not been attractive to buyers. I wonder if their are appraisal issues as well? Would a bank value a home less that is a townhouse rather than a single family dwelling? Rob Sharingwood
