Apartment Living
Making life decisions is very important in every one`s
life. And the most important life decision is about shelter which is the basic
need. Home is where you rest at night when you come from all day hectic works,
home is where you keep your elder’s memories and live therein, where you listen
your new born baby cry. So, it is important to make appropriate life decision
about shelter. In today’s fast paced world, where affordability has become a
serious concern for majority of the people in the world, and also the lack of
resources has become a concern for under developed and developing countries, in
such complex the apartment living is playing the role of a facilitator for
both.
Apartment is basically a group of flats designed to form a
single residence where diversified people are living. Apartment living is
simply a different life style than other living styles. It has its own
dimensions, complications, requirements and its own joys with numerous benefits.
Like every life style it has its pros and cons too. But the way
population and expenses are increasing, apartment living has more pros than
cons. Following are some of the benefits
of living in the apartments.
Financial Benefit Which Enhances Saving
First and foremost, benefit of living in the apartment is
the financial aspect of renting. If living in the apartment on rent, it is way
cheaper than a mortgage. In contrast to overall monthly payment, other
financial components such as keep up and utilities are usually lower because of
the smaller space and the overall responsibility to the landlord. It also provides
space in monthly income to save some money from the income for the purchase of
own property in future. You don`t have to spend a lot on the expenditure and
your apartment. This enhances your savings that you can go for your dreams and
pursue them after saving. Financial aspect is the first concern of every family
nowadays because the emerging challenges and expenses has made the life
difficult and expensive. What could be more fascinating than the place where
you have bundle of benefits yet you have to pay and spend less? You can save a
lot of money for fulfilling your other dreams like having a luxurious car or
travelling and exploring the beautiful world.
Less Responsibility of Maintenance
Since the overall responsibility of maintenance and
utilities are generally lower because they fall on the landlord`s shoulder. It
not only results in financial blessings, but it also provides ease because of
less things to maintain for in a tight schedule. The piece of mind related with
the mental freedom of renting and less maintenance is priceless. The best thing
is that you don`t have to worry about the maintenance even if you own an
apartment the maintenance won`t cost that much as that of owning a big house
and keeping due care of it. When you`re living in an apartment, life becomes
easy and shared. You are living with hundreds of different families who own the
apartment just as you. Whatever maintenance has incurred every member
representing and owning or living in your apartment have to contribute in the
expenditure. So there`s a shared concept of maintenance and you don`t have to
pay it all. You are free from many responsibilities and don`t have to worry
about the maintenance.
Convenience at Each Step
Apartments are generally build with specific facilities
such as swimming pool, gym, tuck shops, grocery stores and laundry shops in the
premises, or at the very close to the residence. Although you can build these
facilities in your houses, but the financial aspect always makes a big
difference. Building and maintaining such facilities is no doubt expensive and
hectic too. Apartment living can provide way more convenient and economical
living arrangements. This could be the greatest benefit of living in an
apartment. If you`re getting bored and want to indulge yourself in some mind
blowing activities, then you have some indoor options which are free of cost.
You don`t have to worry about the travelling distance because every fun and
exciting activity is available at your doorsteps or within your zone. Another
convenience is parking, now you don`t have to worry about your car and don`t
have to hassle for the parking. The parking is available and is allotted to you
initially by the owner. When a shopkeeper knows that hundreds of families are
living here he would love to establish his business here. It will be an ease
for you at every step.
Safety Goes Your Way
Home owners always spend some money for their security, and
all the security expenses falls on individual owner. Whereas, apartments invest
on their overall apartment security, but due to many house owners, the security
expenses decreased and fall less on each owner. Especially for women and
children, living in apartment surrounded by many flats and people is way safer
than living alone in the house. A collective expenditure which is divided and
cost you very little which surely goes your way. A guard or number of guards are
assigned to look after the security concerns of your apartment. Hiring a
personal guard or security could lead you towards an expensive way. But here
the security is distributed and on its best. The collective sharing of salary
reduces your burden to pay more. You are safe and secure and nobody could even
enter your apartment or even think to harm you. What else you want other than a
collective share and security which keeps you away from all sought of worries?
Interactive Community
A great benefit of apartment living is the providing the
sense of society and community. Living in a close proximity helps connecting
people and building relationships with each other. Whereas, living in a house
without know what’s going on in the neighbor in case of any emergency creates
the relationships gaps and demotivates the sense of community and neighborhood.
When you interact with people, you get the exposure and meet different kinds of
people. Every person could be beneficial for you if you know how to maintain
good and healthy relations. You are then affiliated with the community you
belong to and to the place where you live. Your social circle increases,
there`s not a single time when you’ll feel alone or sad. Everyone is there for
your support and care. People living in an apartment consider themselves as a
family who needs to take care of each other`s needs and emotions. Remember,
interacting with diversified people will enhance your skills and will give you
a great experience of people.
An Opportunity to Make New Friends
Whenever you are shifting to a new apartment or even if
you’re being brought up in the apartment, you have a bundle of opportunities
such as creating new friends. You got to meet with new people and your
interaction starts there. You become residents, neighbors and soon friends. The
memories which you bear with your childhood friends are irreplaceable. Friends
are a basic essential and best part of life. You share the deepest secrets of
your life with your friends which you cannot share with anyone else. Friends are the best part of your life which
you feel the most at your emotional level. You have plans and dreams which you
want to fulfill with your friends. What about having a best friend who lives in
your apartment and can meet you 24/7 a day? Isn’t it amazing? You
just need to enjoy your childhood, loose the fear of creating new friends and
go for the best kind of experiences. You may also create a football or a
cricket team as per your desires because a lot of children of your age are also
looking forward for the same thing.
Safety
Safety comes first and it should be prioritized as first. You
don`t have to invest separately on the security concern. If you`re living in an
apartment, you`ll surely get facilitated with the security alert which will
make you feel safe and secure within the range of your apartment. See it`s a
complete package and it leads you towards numerous benefits. Security is the
basic need every individual seek before booking any apartment or home. It is
often considered that multi-unit swelling comes up with best sought of
security. Uncertainties can occur anytime, you just need to keep yourself ready
and full of evidence. The life at apartment is of great fun. There`s a threat
if you are living alone like single woman, or single parent or with children or
even if you`re a small family, apartment which looks good is a must go for
