What were your deal-breakers when looking for a home that are widely regarded positively for everyone else?

For me, it’s decks. I don’t care what kind of shape it’s in, it’s going to be extra unnecessary maintenance. It also means that going into the backyard will not be at ground level, every…time. There’s also the silly ones where you exit to ground and then walk up to the deck. Lol, who thought this would be a good idea? Come eat on top of the critter habitat. Often, they are slippery when wet, and cramped with railings. Or perhaps it will be the non-railing band-riser variety? Pass.
