Thinking of buying a condo at The Chuan Park as your second home, a.k.a your home away from home? This presents several advantages and disadvantages, particularly conveniences, budget, and others. Here’s a short list of the pros and cons.
Pros of Having a Condo
A Change of Scenery. A second home can serve as a mini-vacation house that offers a refreshing change of scenery. You can enjoy the amenities, including a pool, and gym, or simply have a place you can walk around in and enjoy nature.
Good Investment. Generally speaking, properties are considered good investment mediums since they tend to appreciate over time. When not in use, you can have it rented or used as a temporary vacation home.
Easy to Furnish. Furnishing a condo to make it presentable is easy. All it takes is a few furniture, appliances, and something to tie the room with. You won’t have to spend a fortune to make your condo lively compared to furnishing a whole house.
Prime Location a Benefit. A condo in a prime location is a benefit in itself. You get access to modern conveniences, including good places to eat, shopping malls, and transportation, to name a few.
Cons of Having a Condo
Added Expense. A condo is a significant investment and requires considerable monthly payments. This won’t be an issue if you have the budget for it, but over time the bills and maintenance costs can add up quickly and surprise you.
Not as Private as a Standalone
You’ll be in close proximity to your neighbors, which means less privacy for you and them. Sound can easily vibrate through the walls and create noise. In a standalone house, you can do what you want within reason.
