Would You Buy A House Without A Garage?

Ok here is the question. Two years ago we were going to build a new house, but got cold feet and backed out (thank god was at height of market) and decided to remodel instead. We had a garage that was 20x20, barely big enough to hold 2 cars if it was clean, and unable to fully open doors to the cars so it was not really a great garage. We decided to turn it into a dining room/sitting room instead since we did not have a dining room and completely remodeled the kitchen as well since it did not need to be a dining room/kitchen any longer. It added about 400 square feet of living space and also allowed us to add a deck off the main level, something we did not have before. (yard is sloped).So fast forward to now and we are considering making a move and wondering what kind of obstacles we will face trying to sell the house. Most houses have a garage where I live (northeast). So if you wanted to buy a house and loved the other aspects of it, would NOT have a garage keep you from buying?  Go here to read this post and all the interesting  comments:- http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/realestate/msg0808300019846.html?78
