Where do we move,I can't decide?

I put this here because its more relationship than anything else. I hate long questions but i see no way to shorten this one. We have to move by Dec. 1. Our landlord has sold our house. We have 2 choices. 1 is a small apt, we own as an investment. its tiny and the view is of th parking lot. I really don't like the place much but have been able to somewhat decorate it in my mind. Pros, location, its a few blocks to my Moms house, I can walk to the grocery store and the beach and most other places I would need to go on a regular basis. If I can't walk I can ride my bike. We can keep our dog. (he showed up 6 months ago on our doorstep. My husband wants to move there since with location and keeping dog.We already own it and have renters but if we lived there we could slowly replace the kitchen and bathrom and paint and all. My husband sees no reason to live someplace where we are "throwing away rent" instead of keeping someplace we own. Rent is similar but we lose money every month renting this out. You charge rent by whats around you and the mortgage and regime fees and we pay the electric bill means we lose 3-400 a month renting it.

Cons, its tiny, no washer and dryer, bad view, needs alot of fix up work since its been a rental for 10 years. I just plain don't like it and can't see living there.My cats would be in danger of getting out. The view is the parking lot. It has 2 bedrooms, i bath. The master bedroom is on the hallway between the units so the curtains would always have to be closed. With the parking lot they would have to be closed most of the time anyway.

2nd place is cons my husband hasn't seen it but is agreeable if that's what I want. It has alot more room plus a washer and dryer. It costs a little more than our rental unit would, we have to put down a security deposit which we wouldn't if we moved to our rental unit. My husband doesn't like the location since we would still have to drive everywhere. We can't keep the dog. Pros The cats would be safe from outside. It has great views. Very private. Its alot more room, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. has a fantastic view similar to the one we have now, Its very private and I could still go on the deck in a tee shirt and underwear. I'm an artist and work from home so I would enjoy having my studio with great view rather than the parking lot. I also wil be going back to work soon and will be doing an online job from home meaning I'll still be looking at the parking lot. It is also in the process of painting and re-carpeting. Someone else would be responsible for any maintenance issue.

My husband is leaving it up to me but I know he wants the rental unit for the location and the dog. I can visualize decorating it but alot more stuff has to go.

The new place I can keep more stuff and I love the views. We would still have to drive everywhere like we do now. It would also mean driving to Mom's.

I can't decide and I'm really torn. Part of me wants the rental unit since I know my husband wants it. . I also like the location better. Part of me wants the new apt. since I know I will be happy there. I also know when he gets in he will be much happier than the rental. He was claustrophobic in my 1 bedroom with a view of the lagoon before we moved into this house. I can only imagine how catastrophic he will be at the rental with the parking lot view and curtains.

We have no curtains where we live now and wouldn't need them except for the bedrooms where I want to go.

I just can't make up my mind. After laying in bed last night for several hours just thinking I came up with the pro/con list. Now I hope someone can be nice and help me decide or give me some better ideas. My husband comes first in all things. This time I'm feeling selfish by making the decision. Please be nice with your answers. I'm always nice when I answer yours.
