Buy an apartment or a house? In my new video I explain briefly and directly, the decisive advantage of an apartment! Its advantage is that you become part of a community of owners and thus share most of the common costs. Using a sample calculation, we show how this cost sharing can affect your return on investment and cash flow. Learn why a condo can be a smart investment and how it can impact your real estate decisions. Now on Lukinski YouTube!
Why you should invest in a condo? They are the key to higher returns, especially for the first investment
When it comes to investing in real estate, the choice between a condo and a house is crucial. A big advantage of a condo is that you become part of a community of owners. This means that most common expenses are shared. Let’s say you need to replace the heating system in your property.
If your first investment is in a condominium in a building with eight parties, you pay only 12.5% of the total cost. For example, if the replacement of the heating system costs €10,000, you will pay only €1,250 instead of the full €10,000.
Example calculation: Cost sharing WEG
A small sample calculation to illustrate how costs can be divided for a condo versus a house:
Cost type | House (sole ownership) | Condominium (part of a community of owners) |
---|---|---|
Heating system repair | 10.000 € | 10.000 € |
Proportionate costs (12.5%) | – | 1.250 € |
Your share | 10.000 € | 1.250 € |
In this example, as a homeowner, you have to pay the entire €10,000 cost of repairing the heating system. As the owner of an apartment in a condominium, on the other hand, you only pay your share, which in this case is €1,250 (12.5% of the total costs). This illustrates how costs can be shared in a condominium, which can lead to significant cost savings compared to a house.
