Condo vs. house – how do I decide?

The article discusses the pros and cons of choosing a condo or a house. With the pandemic, the demand for more space has increased the popularity of detached homes, semi-detached homes, and townhouses while the demand for condos has decreased due to the pandemic's impact on tourism and immigration. Condos are a good way to get into the housing market and are less work as maintenance fees take care of repairs, and there are no worries about security. Condos have smaller living spaces, no backyards, and are not suitable for large families. Houses are more expensive but offer more space, more privacy, and no maintenance fees. However, they come with more significant maintenance costs and do not offer the amenities of a condo building. The choice between a condo and a house depends on personal needs, affordability, and lifestyle preferences.
