It depends on what you're looking for! Here’s a breakdown of the pros and cons of newer versus older condos:

New Condos

✅ Modern Design & Features – Sleek finishes, open layouts, and smart home tech.
✅ Energy Efficiency – Newer buildings have better insulation, appliances, and eco-friendly features.
✅ Amenities – More high-end gyms, rooftop lounges, coworking spaces, and concierge services.
✅ Lower Maintenance (Initially) – Less wear and tear, so fewer immediate repairs.
❌ Higher Price – New builds usually have a premium price per square foot.
❌ Smaller Units – Developers often prioritize maximizing the number of units, leading to smaller living spaces.
❌ Developer Delays/Risks – Pre-construction condos can have delays, and some developers have financial issues.

Older Condos

✅ Larger Living Spaces – Older condos typically have bigger rooms and more storage.
✅ More Affordable – Price per square foot is often lower, even if monthly fees are higher.
✅ Established Neighborhoods – Often in prime locations with better transit, schools, and shops.
✅ Stronger Build Quality – Some older buildings were built with more durable materials.
❌ Higher Maintenance Costs – Aging systems (plumbing, HVAC, elevators) may need repairs.
❌ Outdated Designs – Some older condos may need renovations to modernize kitchens, bathrooms, or layouts.
❌ Fewer Amenities – May lack the modern perks like rooftop patios, high-end gyms, or smart security systems.

Which One is Better?

• If you want modern living, high-end amenities, and lower initial maintenance, go for a new condo.
• If you want larger space, a prime location, and a more affordable price, an older condo might be better.
