How is your experience of living in Condo?

I decided to move back to the City this year, and after 3 rejected home offers, I decided to look at a condo in downtown area, its for sale and for lease, and I know I dont want to buy a condo so I was thinking of leasing it until I find my dream home. Its a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, with granite counters and stainless steel kitchen, it has 2 car garage and fireplace with hard word floors and its in gated community. Are condo’s the way to go these days? How was your experience in living in one? Thanks

There is no right answer here. Everyone has their own opinion on condo living. Some people love it while others hate it while others are indifferent. Some people can’t afford to buy a single detached home, so they opt for condos, townhouses etc.

I’ve lived in a condo for the past 6 months and I absolutely HATE IT. I can hear my neighbors upstairs and on either side of me. I hate the attitude of the HOA and the way certain people feel like they’re better than you and find the need to point this out via stupid comments. On the other hand, I love the view, the security and the convenient location. But I can’t wait to own a single detached home again.

BUT like I said, everyone has a different perspective. I’ve known people who have owned single detached homes who ended up moving into a condo and would never want to go back to a single detached home. Other people are more money conscious so live in condos because they can’t afford a house etc.

  1. It’s like living in a hotel. Better security. Some neighbors are nice but some are not so, but I don’t associate with them anyway. And condos has the best views of the city!!!

  2. That’s like asking someone’s experience of driving a red car. Each is different.
