Here's my situation: I currently live in a house with no garage. I have the means to get my build started early next year. As such, I'm currently embroiled in a housing search, so I can have The Workshop and get to banging rivets.
Today I looked at a house I really liked. Very nice place, very attractive price, two-car garage, etc. The downside is that it's sort of an upscale duplex; that is, it shares a wall with a neighboring home. In particular, the shared wall is one of the garage walls. Even though I really like the place and the price, I'm concerned about that shared wall when it comes time to fire up the rivet gun.
So the question is...realistically, how much of my (slow) build is going to involve loud operations? I found out this past weekend just how loud a rivet gun is...what I don't want is to end up with animosity between the neighbor and I. Especially since basically the entire purpose of this move is to have a place to build.
My gut feeling is to pass this place up and keep looking. Thoughts?
