Vertical living brings with it a host of advantages. It brings together convenience, safety and security, and flexibility, not to mention the perks of living in a well-located, thoughtfully-designed modern space with a great view–on top of other lifestyle perks that make condo life a great alternative to horizontal living.

If you are in the market for a unit, consider these five advantages of condo living.

Top 5 Advantages of Condo Living

Flexible Spaces

Condominium developments provide you with various unit types to choose from depending on your unique needs. If you are a solo dweller, consider a one-bedroom unit with a balcony.

If you are a couple or live with roommates, a two-bedroom provides ample space while allowing respective residents to enjoy privacy within the home.

Finally, if you have children, live with other family members, or are planning on growing your family, a three-bedroom unit is the ideal unit type to accommodate a full nest.

With regard to maintenance, one of the advantages of condo living is the ease of managing your home including repairs and upkeep. Homes demand interior and exterior, as well as landscaping and pool maintenance if your property includes these as well.

Other perks of high-rise living? Unobstructed views from your unit, along with ample access to natural light and ventilation.

Safety and Security

Condominium developments usually have their own 24-hour security. In addition to security guards stationed at entrance points, CCTV cameras are also installed in common areas like the lobby, parking area, elevators, and other common areas.

For residents like yourself, this translates to peace of mind. If you have household help or guests, the flow of people going in and out of the building is closely monitored.

If you need to leave your condo for an extended period, such as when going on vacation, you can be assured that your unit will be safe even without any caretaker to watch over it.

With this in mind, when considering a condominium unit, always ask the developer about safety and security guidelines.

Access to Amenities and other Key Features

Condominiums come with a number of amenities that provide opportunities for rest and relaxation–some developments more than others. Typically, you will find a swimming pool (one for adults and another for kids), a function room, and perhaps a gym.
However, some developments can be more generous with their amenities. For example, in addition to a gym, there can be the inclusion of an outdoor jogging path and a multipurpose court where you can do several sports. This translates into a greater variety of physical activities.

Outdoor amenities such as pockets of greenery or even a Great Lawn, on the other hand, provide a more laidback counterpart, where you can enjoy quiet time, or perhaps do a meditation session, or even enjoy a picnic with loved ones.

Access to Retail Amenities

Another advantage of condo living? Some developments do come with a retail row where you can get your basic necessities. This can include anything from a grocery to a bank.

The advantage of having this type of access? It saves you time that would have been spent traveling outside the condo grounds to do your errands.

Strategic Location

Finally, condominium developments are usually situated in centrally located areas. For example, they are close to major thoroughfares, business districts, schools, as well as commercial centers.

If you are a professional, finding a unit close to your workplace can significantly reduce travel time as well as the cost of gas or commuting. For families, proximity to academic institutions and family-friendly destinations makes condo living even more appealing and undeniably convenient.
