Life Tips #2: Moving into your new Condo in the Philippines
About the property which you'll probably be able to see after two years time:
1. After two years time, the building will be done - erected - finished- they say.
2. Let's assume that it does get done - on schedule.
3. Know first - if there's surrounding construction next to the building because ---
there will be an enormous amount of construction debris, workers and dust flying around your new unit.
4. No, the workers will not be flying around, only dust and other junk.
5. First, because they're still working on another building nearby.
6 .Second, because the workers are now IN YOUR BUILDING renovating your neighbor's condo units.
7. How long will this last?
8. More than a year's time.
9. So note: you might NOT want to live in the unit immediately once the "construction" is done.
10. The building will be semi-deserted or extremely populated with carpenters, painters, designers and lots of spray paint fumes.
11. So what to do?
12. Send in your own renovators to join the party.
13. And decide to either have your renovated condo RENTED OUT FIRST --while the dust settles in.
14. Or you move in yourself and deal with the construction going on around you.
15. The plus - if you move in - nobody else is there - so you have the building to yourself --AND THE CARPENTERS/WORKERS.
16. Another plus -- the elevators - depending on the number of them - will and may be clogged with workers -if there's not enough elevators or if the building doesn't have a dedicated service elevator for them.
17. Yes, if you like miniskirts and bleepbleep boots and you're going down the elevator to the parking lot, you're going to enjoy the silence in the elevator with 5 building workers.
