Although they are excellent investments, Condominiums are rather expensive. As the saying goes – you have to spend money to make money. In order to make money off your condominium property, you must first buy the property in the first place.
But what is the best way to do it? For most people, they do not have enough money to buy a condominium in “one-shot” cash payment. Therefore, they must instead take a loan and pay off the installments, usually over a period of around 20 years. With a rising inflation rate and interest, this means that you end up paying more over time but sometimes it is the only choice.
But let’s say you can choose? What is the best method then? Personally, we believe that you shouldn’t have any debts than necessary. If you can pay all of the cost in one go, then we suggest that you do it, because it will save you money in the long run.
However, things are not that simple, as wiping out your savings this way can leave you vulnerable to sudden events like hospitalization and medical bills. For those who are worried, there is also the “half and half” method, which is as simple as it looks – simply pay half of the cash up-front and pay the rest through loans over time. This way, you have the best of both worlds – spend less money over time but leave yourself some room for emergencies!
Regardless of your choice, make sure you do the proper research into which is the best method that works for your financial status.
