A heated pool and spa might seem attractive, but many renters would rather save than swim.
Blame it on overseas holidays to posh hotels or trips to serviced apartments in Surfers and the Gold Coast, but there was a trend in apartment block design a few years ago that promised the marketing oxymoron of “affordable luxury”.
While car parking and a larger flat to accommodate a terrace or balcony will obviously add to your levies, at least they are paying their way by attracting renters., and the NSW government had to change the law to prevent developers from promoting that other impossibility – both luxury facilities and low levies., gardeners and cleaners need wages. All of these costs are added to your levies. And if you have an apartment the size of a super yacht, your share of the fees will be higher too.
How far away is the nearest public swimming pool? OK, it’s full of strangers but at least you don’t have someone you might meet in the lift perving on you from their balcony. The bottom five, least-wanted items of the 20 in the survey were en-suite bathrooms, water-saving devices, views and swimming pools, with gyms last.
