Apartment, condo, or Flats ?

Apartment, condo, or Flats ? Which one do you chose for ? You work in the big cities and confused in choosing a place to stay ? Whether choosing flats or apartments ? So, what's the difference with condominium apartments. Let's consider the following explanation.

Reasons for Choosing Apartment

The apartment is a building block that part of it was given the barriers to be a certain amount of space, which is leased or sold with strata title system. Strata title is the ownership of an apartment, but not the land rights associated with the land in which there is common ownership rights over the so-called joint parts, ground joint, shared objects. Condominium is ownership of a property or building by a few people or a large number of people. Differences condos and apartments only on terms alone, more condos to apartments while the legal terms to physical terms.

It could be said that the apartment is the most appropriate housing for young people productive and always moving fast, because it does not require special care because the space is not so broad. Needs quick access to a variety of base camp was the reason for choosing an apartment, because of its strategic location inside the city. Advantages of staying in an apartment for a young couple is easy to set the time for the family. The scope of small dwellings do not require much attention. Thus, attention can be focused on children, for example. Meanwhile, the parents can live in the suburbs, or anywhere else that is relatively quiet and the population is not dense so that parents can enjoy with the rest more comfortably.

But the reality is happening in Indonesia reversed. The young people who are still productive and have high mobility mostly residing far from the location of the center of activity. They live in the suburbs. In fact, by living in the suburbs while the day-to-day activities in the city can cause a variety of waste, including:
  • waste of time
  • waste costs
  • environmental waste (active pollute the environment, particularly roads)
  • social waste (only a little time for the community)

In line with that, the apartment is home to the well-established that a large income. This is a result of the developer who made the luxurious residential apartments, exclusive, and only to a limited circle, so that young people are not interested in staying there. In fact, you should stay in the well established suburb that is not crowded because they no longer need a high mobility. Finally, developers become accustomed to fix the selling price of apartments that can only be reached by the upper class only. The absence of a systematic concept of city planning that can control the distribution of the population, conserve energy, reduce congestion, shorten the distance to mobility so efficient, and so on. This is a real drawback for the system of urban development in Indonesia.

Actually, the developer has taken the initiative to market the apartments with more affordable price, about US$60.000. The government has launched a simple Flats Property Rights is of course its price is much cheaper, and can be repaid with interest subsidized by the government and its tax exempt. This is a good opportunity for the budding young entrepreneurs, to make this dwelling as a residence. As of this well-established young entrepreneurs, families will need more space, the number of children increases, then be moved to a "real home" is adequate in a quieter location. Meanwhile, apartment or house existing in the city center can be rented out to other young entrepreneurs or sold.

Social life in the apartment of course not the same as life in ordinary society. For example, neighbors not only in the left, right, front or rear, but above and below are also available. With limited space, residents can not freely and hobbies like gardening. If it will hold an event, such as salvation, can not invite too many people. Furniture must also be taken into account carefully. Because we can not store too much furniture, or buy furniture that is too large. In short, a very high tolerance needed to stay in the apartment. Mutual respect, rational, and value diversity. This culture is a modern communal culture, unlike traditional communal culture that the application of unwritten rules and tend to be loose.

Social life in the apartment must establish written rules agreed by all residents and held a joint oversight. This is because usually the occupants of the apartment came from different cultural backgrounds.

The reluctance of some people to live in towers as the towers because of the connotation of rundown apartment. In fact, the basic understanding of the apartments and flats are the same. Furthermore, the flat is one surefire solution for overcoming the urban population density and limited land for settlement.

Apartment
VS Flats

Homes term and more widely heard lately. This is actually a part of the Project 1000 Tower towers are being worked on by ministry. Homes is the acronym of simple Flats Property, which is marketing heavily subsidized by the government and are primarily for people who earn a maximum of 4.5 million per month. Meanwhile, Homes is the acronym of simple Flats Rent, which is intended for people who earn a maximum of 1.7 million per month.

Quality finishing materials for apartment and condominiums using material with Grade A quality, while for flats simply spurious.

Parking lot at the apartment, at least one unit has a car park. While flats only have 1 car park for 10 units. Size bunk house with 2 bedrooms with a studio type apartment unit (no room). But even so, for the quality of the foundation, and other basic construction is the same, because the standard for dozens of floors high building should be based on international standards that is standard. For any type of building, usually use big contractors like Clairvoyant international class, and the like. Another advantage, to live in public housing, usually monthly dues such as electricity, water, sanitation, telephone, security, and others can be much cheaper when compared with the same types of fees in the apartment. Each apartment has no uniform policy on this matter, because it involves the prestige and prestige.

Striking is the difference more of course the price. One type of units with 33 flats and is located in the center of town can be had at a price of about USD144 million. When compared with the apartment has an area of more or less equal, price could reach USD7 billion. For some people who are classified as subsistence economy (fitting to buy a car, buy a house fit for) the presence of flats would be very helpful. It's just very unfortunate many irresponsible people like the broker or brokers who buy up as many flats for resale as expensive-expensive. Indeed, young people are always victims
