I don't have a problem with that because it was similar to a furnace, set the temperature. 

Doesn’t AC only cool -25 max of what the outside temperature is?

The upside to associations is that you will be able to leave the property and know that there is someone managing the grounds outdoor maintenance etc. 

Your tenant is more likely to experience issues from something outdoors.3.

I see many town home new builds have this feature but likely because it allows higher density/lower cost of land since many lack yard area but the rooftop allows an outdoor feature. 

Since the temperature in my area only drops below -5°F twice a year on average, the heat pump effectively covers 99.5% of the heating needs.There is a plethora of combinations that you can achieve using just mini splits.

The amenities and outdoor space are the bigger draw I have seen. 

The amenities rule everything (especially outdoor).

We have a one year old daughter who keeps us busy and we love playing sports and spending time outdoors with our free time. 

Establish outdoor cámaras to review exterior activity, and request pre and post pics of the job and pay your contractors promptly.
