Are condominiums facing south/west more expensive?

Ground floor is also great for seniors who no longer want a whole house. I strongly hope that when we sell our single-family house in 20 years, we can move into a ground floor apartment with a (small) garden in the (city) center. Additionally, someone is always passing by the ground floor garden who wants to chat with you. :) The annoying thing is that you still have to pay for the elevator, but I classify that as "solidarity."

One can compare slum apartments to penthouse apartments under the roof? ;)

By the way, the sun used to be frowned upon. Only peasants showed that they had been kissed by the sun :cool:

It was already said above: new construction square meters are equal within a building – there is a target group for everything. The architect also knows this and includes an attractive detail to upgrade an apartment that is somewhat inferior in terms of location.

As existing condominiums, any fantasy prices are possible: either buyers are found or not.

That reminds me: even a property developer here once reduced some RHer in “less desirable locations” significantly because they couldn’t be sold.

Basically, I don’t see sellers making evaluations based on their own preferences. They are professionals and don’t think naively.

We are exactly the kind of people who always wanted to live specifically on the ground floor. Fewer stairs, less carrying (especially important since the kids are here), no one below can be disturbed by the children's stomping. I also don't like southwest orientation, too hot in summer. It always depends on one's own priorities. I would never rent or buy an attic apartment facing south/southwest. Not even with an elevator.

Well, tastes are just that different. Which is a good thing, otherwise certain apartments would hardly be sellable. However, my purchased apartment now has an electric aluminum roller shutter on every window. According to internet research, that should actually keep the heat out well during the day. Of course, if you now work from home, take care of children, or are retired, then that’s not really an alternative because you don’t want to sit in the dark. I actually like apartments with gardens too, but “unfortunately” I belong to the people who don’t like it when everyone else can see from their balconies what you’re doing in the garden.

In new buildings, all issues are resolved thanks to elevators (often down to the underground garage). In existing buildings, it looks different again. I do NOT know of any new construction among my clients where the ground floor would be more sought after than the other floors due to its location, even with a garden share. The ground floor always sells "cheaper." But tastes differ. There is always a "lover" for every property.

As said, even with an elevator: never. Alone the garden share and the quick accessibility of the ground floor would always be exclusion criteria for me for the other floors! By the way, another one: We always had cats and they were allowed outside. Yes, in theory you could also let them out from higher floors, but in reality, this is also a clear advantage for the ground floor.
