90,000+ views and hundreds of honest answers later, here’s what I learned from asking:
“What’s your biggest regret after buying a condo?”
Some regretted not buying parking early.
Some underestimated association dues and hidden costs.
Some wished they had chosen a bigger unit.
Some experienced turnover delays and poor property management.
But others had the opposite regret:
They wished they had bought sooner—or bought more units—because their condo appreciated, earned rental income, and eventually paid for itself.
My biggest takeaway?
A condo is neither automatically a good investment nor a bad one.
It depends on:
✅ Your purpose—home, rental, Airbnb, or resale
✅ Your true financial capacity
✅ Location and actual market demand
✅ The developer’s track record
✅ Property management and after-sales service
✅ Total cost—not just the monthly payment
✅ Your future lifestyle and exit plan
Don’t buy simply because you qualify for the loan or because the monthly payment looks affordable.
Buy because the property fits your life, your finances, and your long-term goal.
Before buying a condo, what question do you think every buyer should ask first?
