I was not addressing resale or investment value. When I wrote "Location, location, location." I intended the location I desired aesthetically, for its convenience to what I wanted near me, how pleasant I found my neighborhood, considering matters such as noise from aircraft and road traffic and its fumes, nearness to grocery stores, nice restaurants, good medical facilities and so on. I like to reside in a cheerful home in which I feel comfortable and safe. It can be large and fancy or modest in size and amenities. Either is fine with me.
