We cannot decide between two houses. One is a slab and one has a crawl space. Thoughts?

Crawlspace. I like real wood floors and can only get engineered wood on slab. I want access to plumbing and wiring and ducts, too.

Crawlspace for me. But I worry about humidity and mold. I just don't like walking on cement all day.

If I have a choice and all other things are equal, I will have a concrete slab. When I think of crawlspaces, I can only see snakes spiders and mold problems.
Yuck!

I would go for the slab one. My friends house is having crawl space and it creates many problems in humid weather. Also the maintenance becomes difficult. Read more about it from the link.

Crawlspace for me. I want a real wood floor and some resiliency.

We ended up with a crawlspace. It was just the house we liked the best. I think we could have been happy with a crawlspace or a slab, as long as the house was what we wanted, and the location was good.

crawl space is better than slab. I think you should buy home in crawl space.
