SFH without a garage

[Muhammad Rehan]

Is it worth taking a chance on a house that is good looking, at a nice location etc. But it doesnt have a garage? That too in midwest side where winters can be harsh? Or should we stay away from such properties?

[Aristotle Kumpis]

It depends on what the other homes in the neighborhood are like. Do they also not have garages? If not, then it's probably a common thing there. I own a few homes without garages and they rent just fine. It's same thing as bedroom/bathroom mix. Everyone thinks a 3 bedroom is better. But if 50% of the homes in the area are 2 bedrooms, then that's what people are used to.
