What Every Buyer Needs to Know Before Purchasing an Apartment

Thinking of buying an apartment? Read this first.

Most owner-occupiers focus on the view, the kitchen, the balcony and the price.

Very few stop to ask:

How healthy is the building’s financial position?

How reliable are the lifts?

What do the strata minutes really reveal?

How much noise will I live with?

What happens when a special levy arrives?

After more than 40 years in real estate — and over 25 years personally living in apartments ranging from modest walk-ups to luxury harbourfront towers — John Burgoyne has seen where apartment regret begins.

It doesn’t start with dramatic disasters.

It starts with small things buyers overlook.

In Apartment Living Lifestyle, John shares real-world experience and practical structure to help you assess:

• Financial risk

• Governance strength

• Noise and privacy realities

• Lift and access reliabilityLight, orientation and liveability

• The true cost of shared living

Apartment living can be exceptional.

But only when you understand what you’re really buying.

Before you sign a contract…Before you fall in love with the view…Before emotion overrides logic…
