When we say condominiums, the first thing that comes into our minds are high-rise buildings and office buildings, usually found in major business districts such as in Makati and Ortigas as well as commercial areas. The luxury of living in these kinds of condo Philippines is with its location, which allows residents to be within walking distance or mass transit distance to their workplace.

However, other than these types of condominiums, a new breed of condos were introduced to provide a more luxurious living space aways from the city as well as its noises. These types of condominiums are mostly known as condominium complexes.

Condominium complexes are similar with townhouse complexes in terms of appearance. Both are located in wide expanse of land, in a peaceful and quiet location. Popular examples are those from Tagaytay, Novaliches, Taguig, and Marikina. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of owning condo from these types of condominiums?

Amenities such as swimming pools, gyms, spas, and recreational parks are the things that made it similar to townhouse complexes. However, one major difference is with its cost, which is significantly cheaper than townhouse complexes.
