Maintenance
One of the top reasons to move into an apartment is the ease of maintenance. When you don’t have to worry about maintaining the property, your to-do list only features what you want to do. Homeownership brings inevitable and tedious repairs, yard work, preventative maintenance and all of the associated costs. Having someone do your house maintenance for you makes life simpler but also expensive. Living in an apartment makes these worries disappear. Instead of shoveling snow, replacing a broken dishwasher, or fixing a leaky roof, you can enjoy a book, meet a friend for coffee or enjoy a day to yourself. All property maintenance at the Meadows of Perth Apartments is taken care of by us. We’re just a phone call or an email away.
Savings
While many people argue that apartment rent is sometimes higher than a mortgage payment, they’re not looking at the big picture. A mortgage is not the only expense of a house. There’s a sizable down payment, mortgage payments, home insurance, HOA fees, TV bills, internet bills, Hydro, Gas and other utilities such as water costs, property taxes, home maintenance expenses, waste collection fees, security system fees, appliance maintenance costs, fitness membership fees, and on top of that, stress. In contrast, moving into an apartment only requires a small deposit fee. Renter’s insurance is a fraction of the cost of homeowner’s insurance and the Meadows Apartments has no extra maintenance fees. Just one monthly bill for total ease of living.
Safety
When considering the pros and cons of apartment living, safety should always be a top priority. Living in a multi-unit dwelling gives added security you can’t find in a home. Increased safety features make apartment living perfect for those who live alone, the elderly, or those who just want more peace of mind. The Meadows Apartments offers high quality cameras both inside and outside of the building as well as smart key access so only tenants are able to enter the building.
Amenities
Amenities that come with apartment living are hard to find in a home. With recreation and convenience right outside your doorstep, the Meadows of Perth Apartments offers many fantastic perks. These perks include a common room to host parties, a fitness centre, automated smart access and an outdoor BBQ area and patio for the summer, just to name a few.
Time
One thing most of us never seem to have enough of is time. Apartment living gives tenants the gift of time by taking care of the work they don’t want to do, such as tedious maintenance. At the Meadows Apartments, tenants can decide what they want to do, and have the day to themselves.
Freedom
If you don’t like getting locked down living in one place for a long time, apartment living is for you. The Meadows of Perth Apartments gives you the freedom to move whenever you choose. A house on the other hand, comes with a mortgage, a house sale, big moving costs and a lot of hassle. Apartment living takes the stress and complications out of moving and gives you freedom.
Community
Although there is opportunity to create a close bond in a housing community, the opportunities for friendship in an apartment are even greater. With close proximity to your neighbors and ample opportunity to spend time together, apartment living creates a closer community with BBQs, parties, club meetings and celebrations.
Expenses
As the Meadows of Perth Apartments doesn’t offer hidden fees like house living does, you’re able to plan for the future with accuracy as your expenses are the same every month.
