Although most Filipino families prefer owning a house and lot, acquiring a condo presents several benefits that would make you consider owning one instead for your family. From location, amenities, and living spaces, raising a family in the condo living environmentis now a reasonable arrangement.
Interested to know more? Here are some of the benefits of owning that family condo.
Accessible to Everything
Living close to key places such as transportation hubs, hospitals, banks, churches, schools, commercial establishments, and even your workplace promotes a productive living environment for your whole family. Having to live near your workplace eases and allows more quality time for family bonding and rest. Your children will also greatly benefit from living a short distance from their school because it will give them more time for leisure. They can participate in different school clubs and engage in urban adventures.
With all that said, condos provide you with strategic locations that enhance productivity and conserve more of your time and effort, which most houses could not accommodate. In some cases, they do but are too costly.
Amenities for the Whole Family
With a smaller living area, what could your kids possibly do in a condo? There are a lot! Many condominium properties come with indoor playgrounds to accommodate children. It will help your kids meet other children to play around within a safe environment. In a way, this may aid you to raise friendly and good-natured children. Aside from play areas, there are also swimming pools where they can try out and learn how to swim.
Not only are theseamenities beneficial to your children, but they cater to your needs for a healthy lifestyle as well. You may take a few swimming laps in the pool or some weight lifts from the gym available in most condominiums. Now there are no excuses for you to skip your daily dose of exercise. There are also events some condominium management facilitates for their residents to socialize and make connections like Easter parties, Trick or Treat, Christmas parties, and more. Another great amenity a few condominium properties offer is function halls. When you have to organize personal events such as birthday parties, you now have the option to have it within your building.
If these amenities do not satisfy your needs for recreational activities, you may always opt to explore urban adventures nearby. Malls, commercial establishments, and play centers, among others, are a few steps away from your doorsteps.
Healthy Walking Lifestyle
In connection with the first two benefits, location plays a crucial role in your lifestyle, in your family’s lifestyle. For the luxury of easy access to amenities that come with the ready for occupancy condo and its surrounding key places, it sets your daily routine to casual walks and outdoor activities around the city. Thus, leaving behind long drives and traffic to more productive walks to shopping malls, restaurants, galleries, parks, and the like. This is one of the differentiating factors for families looking for a place to live in love. At the same time, you lessen your contribution to traffic and your emission of pollutants. Thereby, you and your family live more sustainably in a condo.
More Affordable
Raising a family certainly follows through with a pile of expenses. And deciding to live in a condo will most likely cut down some of those expenses, considering thebenefits it comes with the condo. Being in the heart of the city lessens costs on transportation and fuel. More so on family activities where the amenities provided may be utilized instead of spending time and money outside. Other main costs like in-house maintenance, condo repairs, and security are covered and shared in the residents’ monthly payments. Knowing the increases in costs at present, spending less and saving more through maximizing cost-efficient, dynamic, and urban options are the way to go.
Prioritizes Safety and Security
The safety and well-being of your family are one of the main priorities in choosing the right home. Through the 24/7 surveillance cameras and security services offered by almost all condominium properties in the Philippines, the assurance of your family’s welfare in condos is thought-out. Only residents have access to the building and its amenities. Unanticipated visitors need to verify their identity and reasons for visiting at the lobby desk.
Condominiums also implement emergency measures for possible fire and earthquake disasters. Fire suppression systems such as extinguishers, sprinklers, fire alarms, and earthquake-resistant foundations ensure to comply with government requirementsin cases of emergencies.
Experiences Over Objects
Living in a condo means less space and fewer things to own at home. As a good thing, it opens more room for experiences for your family outside the walls of your condo. Change how you view accumulating things as more substantial than creating memories and experiences with your family though intangible. It is in the same perspective as deciding whether to buy a house or a condo. Choosing to live in a condo is a statement of a simplistic and modern lifestyle. As they say, bigger is not always better.
A smaller area also implies reduced household chores and more family time to spend. You may take time doing recreational activities with your family during the weekends instead of allotting those days of the week as general cleaning days. You could perceive the smaller living space as an encouragement to family intimacy and togetherness, which in other instances in large houses have their personal spaces encourage less closeness.
