After selling the high-rise residential building and moving into the old community, I deeply realized a truth: investing in high-rise residential buildings is actually an IQ tax!
The initial choice to buy a high-rise apartment was mainly attracted by its expansive views, fresh air and the idea of being able to enjoy a peaceful life away from the hustle and bustle of the city. However, the actual life experience has been a big disappointment. The numerous inconveniences in high-rise housing are almost unbearable!
First of all, the property management fees for high-rise residential buildings are extremely expensive. Residents pay a hefty monthly fee, but the level of service is questionable: elevators break down frequently, greenery is unsatisfactory, and security measures don't live up to their name. In contrast, the property in the old community is inexpensive, but it can provide a thoughtful service that far exceeds expectations.
Second, in high-rise housing, the relationship between neighbors is colder. Residents are independent of each other and neither disturb nor pay attention to each other. Even when you run into a neighbor in an elevator, it's often just an awkward smile exchanged. In contrast, in the old-fashioned community, the relationship between neighbors is more warm and supportive, as if returning to the era of warm and large families.
In addition, the safety of high-rise residential buildings is a cause for concern. In the event of an emergency such as a fire or earthquake, it is more difficult to escape from a high-rise house. In contrast, although the facilities in the old community are older, the building structure is more robust, which makes it more secure.
Ultimately, high-rise housing falls far short in terms of comfort. Its poor air circulation makes it as hot as a steam oven in summer and cold as an ice vault in winter. In contrast, although the facilities in the old community are more rudimentary, the environment is more livable and the living comfort is relatively higher.
It wasn't until I sold the high-rise and moved into an old neighborhood that I realized that this is the essence of life. The facilities are a little old, but the human touch is warm, and the property costs are low, but the service is of high quality. Living here, I have found a true sense of belonging and happiness.
Of course, that's not to say that high-rise housing isn't all beneficial. Everyone has their own preferences and needs, and choosing the right place for you is the key. However, if you're similar to me and have been plagued by the many inconveniences of high-rise housing, you may want to think about moving into an old neighborhood and trying a different kind of living experience.
In general, life is like a long journey, not to pursue the end, but to enjoy the scenery and mood on the way. No matter where we are, we can find our own happiness if we are fully engaged and value the present moment.
