Two-bedders are an increasingly popular choice for buyers, as prices reach new heights. Investors may purchase these units due to a lower capital commitment and a higher potential yield (if they’re renting out), while small families may see them as less of a financial stretch. On the other hand, three-bedders are still regarded by many as being a “true” family-sized unit; and as some realtors may tell you, they’re easy to sell and could fetch stronger resale gains.
