in realestate •  3 years ago 

Condominiums and Urban Living have absolutely changed the way we live and interact with our surroundings. As a combination of functionality, practicality, convenience, and luxury, condominiums have been designed to make our lives easier by giving us all the amenities we need at home while letting us live in fast-paced, urban environments.

For those of you unconvinced by how great mid-rise condominiums are, this article is for you. In it, we discuss all the essentials of mid-rise condominium living.

What is Mid-Rise Condo Living?

First of all, what is mid-rise condo living? It’s a condominium building structure that’s divided into several units. Condominium units are owned outright - as opposed to apartments that aren’t. The common areas, however, aren’t owned by one singular person. Instead, it’s managed and taken care of by the property managers, who are responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the corridors in the ground floor, walkways, laundry rooms, and common utility areas.

What is Mid Rise Condo Living

Deriving from the Latin words “con” and “dominium”, which means together and ownership, respectively, a condominium is a joint dominion amongst condo owners in an effort to build a great and supportive community.

Specific to mid-rise condominiums, these are buildings typically with more than four floors but less than 12 floors. Simple buildings with catwalks and hallways span the entire land area, the area itself spans from ranges of 1,000 to 3,000 square feet.

Top Reasons To Choose Mid-Rise Condominiums or Mid Rise Apartments

Given all that information, why would you ever want to choose mid-rise condominiums? There are so many better options out there, right?

Well, not really. There are inherent advantages to mid-rise condominiums that high rise apartments- and low-risers just don’t offer. In this section, we go over some of them.

Security

Security

Most mid rise buildings are smaller than high-risers, that’s true. But that also means there’s less ground to cover for the security personnel. With less square feet to cover in a building, the security personnel are better able to provide their services and monitor the halls for any unwarranted visitors.

Peace

Peace

To that same tune, because mid-rise condominiums are naturally smaller spaces, you’re also able to enjoy you’re peace more. With less people living in the building versus that of high rise condominiums in high rise buildings, the hallways and common areas wouldn’t be as congested as they would normally be in larger condominiums.

This also holds true to the outside environment of the space. Mid-rise condos aren’t normally located in busy, highly-urbanized areas of the city. You can most often find them in family-friendly areas with a growing community and accessible essential establishments such as convenience stores, grocery outlets, schools, and hospitals.

Value

When it comes to prices and general living, there’s no other better investment than mid-rise condos.

From the renting perspective, the prices of renting a mid-rise condo is also, surprise surprise, mid-ranged. It’s the perfect place for small families or for couples to start their life because it not only provides an adequate amount of floor space available for living, but it also provides these amenities at a much more attainable price. Perhaps the only con to this is that the amenities available in mid-rise condos are definitely not up to the luxurious standards of the high-rise apartment buildings but that’s not really a problem, as the assumption here is that the people living in mid-risers are only now starting their careers and are thusly spending most of their time there.

We’re not saying that this is a problem by any means but with these people starting off their careers and using up most of their energy in the workplace, it’s safe to assume that they won’t have the time to work out or walk around anywhere else.

Value

From the buying perspective, mid-rise condominiums are just the perfect investment to make - if you can afford it. We discussed that the primary target market for mid-rise condos are the people that are only getting their careers started so it’s safe to assume that at this point, they wont have much money to make investments, especially into real estate.

If you do have the money, however, maybe you should look at mid-rise condominiums. They’re easy to acquire and easy to sell while also quickly appreciate because of their location. The cost per square meter of the area that you’re condo is in will, more often than not, be quickly rising and you’ll be surprised to find the value of your condo more than double in just a couple of years.

While you wait for this to happen, why not live in it? Take advantage of your ownership of the condo and stay there. Otherwise, it might be best for you to find someone to rent it out to. That way, it generates passive income while you wait for it to appreciate.

Amenities

Amenities v2

When it comes to amenities, we previously discussed just how easy on the eyes mid-rise condos are in comparison to high-risers. Though everyone wants to be unique and be world-class, the truth is, the developers of these condos understand their target market and normally find investing in amenities to be a secondary expense, that money could have instead gone to either expanding the other important places in the condo community like parking spaces or paying more maintenance and security personnel.

Location

Location v2

Needless to say, there are some unique benefits to living in mid-risers and that’s accessibility. Living in mid-rise condos gives you the high-end lifestyle without the high-end price as the location of mid-risers are, more often than not, nearby commercial centers around the area. Mid-rise condos make it more convenient for residents to pick up groceries, pay bills, or dine outside without having the high costs of living in high-rise condos.

Being at the center of the social scene is perfect for those who want a healthy mix of career growth and want to experience living their independent lives. The accessibility that mid-rise condos afford does just this for everyone and so much more.
