Don’t fall into the rut of believing that once you have seen one of the San Diego downtown apartments you have seen them all. Not all apartments are alike. As a matter of fact, if you have been running into the same old same old that is only because you have not been looking in the right place. If you have discerning tastes and you are ready to buy an apartment that offers more than four walls and some hardwoods don’t give up hope.
Your New Home
One of the critical mistakes that people make when it comes to real estate hunting is settling. It almost seems like agents set you up to prepare you to settle. You hear things like “you may have to compromise” or “moving 10 blocks away from the water would save you so much money”. The problem seems to stem from the idea that an apartment is “less of a home” than a single family dwelling is. Again, if you have been getting that kind of feedback, you are looking in the wrong place. An apartment can be a home, as a matter of fact, it can offer you far more than you can ever find in a single family dwelling. You can have:
- A 24-hour concierge service at your back and call
- A pool
- A resident’s lounge
- Access to cars and boats
- Beautiful surroundings with a low maintenance lifestyle
Ask Yourself
How do you want to spend your time? Do you want to settle for an apartment where you have to make compromises or do you want to live in the home of your dreams? Do you want to spend weekend mowing grass or dealing with hiring staff to handle maintenance around the house or do you want it all taken care of for you?
Two words you should remember on your home search so you never have to compromise; Pacific Gate!
