I Paid For That

Stating I PAID FOR THAT can be a thrilling experience boasting of the purchase of your new house.

Or one of great dissatisfaction, OMG I PAID FOR THAT!! It's not exactly what I was expecting?.

This site originated after 10 years of living in a Condo. What we want to create is an open discussion forum for individuals to share their experiences of condominium living, whether a nightmare or a dream. Allow us understand if there something we may have to recognize, be it an excellent experience or a bad one. Did you miss something that we might learn from?

First-time purchaser or downsizing, we are all putting out huge dollars to a person that is to provide your brand-new desire house and also indeed, 1250 square feet or 2000 square feet can be a gorgeous residence or otherwise. Some of the dissatisfaction could be our very own mistake for not asking or looking hard sufficiently. On the other side the sales workplace, the real estate professional or inadequately run strata's that were not as forth coming as was necessary. There's a fine line as well, and unfortunately it's not always in your favor.

It continues to surprise me that when we buy a residence, on a lot of occasions we leave no rock unturned; we cross our T's as well as dot our I's, we get evaluations done as well as bring Mother, Dad, and good friends to obtain their point of view on what we are about to acquire. To top it off, we have the help of a real estate professional to write an unwavering agreement to shield us. Yet I see individuals lined up outdoors at show suites, towers not also constructed, simply an opening in the ground, getting as if it is a fire sale! Whatever you have ever before desired for, you need to get one prior to they go out it is such a fantastic cost!

Will you enjoy with just what you paid when you find out that the heavy traffic below is stagnating due to an accident? The noise, the exhaust, the fumes-- exactly how on earth did I miss this? Or the bar simply down the street that shuts at 1:00 am.

Some of the concerns for me may not be a problem for you, yet If there was one that perhaps could be a worry for you, would you not want to know about it before you turn over the cash?
