Could not agree more.
We would not live in one of those sardine cans, even if we could get it for free. The whole point of buying a SFH is to have a yard and private space.
Those “courtyards” are maybe acceptable for storing a BBQ, but nothing else.
It is all about maximizing profits for the builders/developers. Hopefully, more buyers will turn their noses up at these disasters so that builders never attempt to force them on us, again.
