so im pretty settled in to the new home and ive come across a few things that are not my favorite which leads me to this post.
what are the things about your house that you dont love?
my house is built into a hill which makes everything unlevel. you cant really tell except for one area but hanging things, installing doors or molding, is a real pain in the arse
you cannot breathe upstairs without hearing it ownstairs. the floors are REAL noisey. im lightly concerned about when dh is better and we are umm bonding in our bedroom what you hear since on the ground level (two floors below) will be my moms house
but the biggest pain.... the neighbors tree!!!!!! it hangs in our backyard which is great for shade and privacy and i dont really despise raking the leaves its the f-ing acorns that kill me. there are literally 1000s of them in my yard and they dont rake up easy. this will definately be the bain of my existance in the fall.

We don't have a house, that's annoying.

Same here. I do love our apartment though although I wish it were a little larger.

Re: things you DONT love about your house
Things I hate: - Our neighbor to the left is trash. - The pocket door for the half bath on the first floor. We can't figure out how to get a lock on it and you can't put a normal door in the space. - I think the floor is unlevel in the laundry room so the washer makes a banging noise during the spin cycle. - The carpets upstairs, I cannot wait to rip them out and put hardwood in like the first floor. - The glass bowl pedastal sinks in the master bath... They are so getting rupped out and we're getting a vanity.
Other than that I don't have any complaints.
ETA: Wait, I lied,,, I also hate this giant tree-shrub thing in the backyard. It's right in the middle of the yard AND the pond the previous owners put it. It's just a mosquito playground.

Just that we don't own.
I actually LOVE my apartment!!!
Well.. just thought of one thing I'm not a fan of... HATE the bathroom... LOVE the rest of the place!!
Haha.. I thought of another one last night.... when we have to walk people out late at night.. I HATE that because the stairs creek and the doors are soooo loud... and the old landlords bedroom is right next to the loud asss door!!! I always feel like a kid sneaking around!!

Re: things you DONT love about your house
Couldnt wait to first move in almost 1 yr ago... but soon found out...
1. our walls have zero insulation... they are freezing in the winter which makes the house cold = high heating bills
2. all electric is soooo not affordable LOL
3. slider windows are a total PITA when you have blinds up
4. tons of trees in our courtyard (we live in a condo) = barely any natural light comes in & thousands of leaves have been falling down
5. our management company sucks the big one... they collect lots of $$ and do the bare minimum... i just dont get it
ETA: 6. Very little counterspace in the kitchen... It makes preparing meals a bit annoying... but that could always be changed if we moved the sink's position when we put in granite
--- Thats about it... You find ways to better most of the issues as time goes on...

Hmmm I hope we dont find anything about the hosue once we move in!
As for our condo my biggest gripe is that it an annoying commute to work! That's about it thoguh!

Re: things you DONT love about your house
the old looking counter tops and not enough counter space or cabinets.
the windows go the other way and its annoying to get screens
