I would kill to live in a mall conversion to open space living. Your own indoor walking track, atriums, fountains, sculptures, natural lighting, and racketball-volleyball, courts. Condos in the retail stores footage, and the common areas open. Lots of parking and road access. Heck, I might never go off site.
“I would kill to live in a mall conversion to open space living.”
There are a few risks there.
—Security must be airtight—end to end including parking areas—24/7. Zero tolerance for even petty and nuisance crimes—including shoplifting—and fanatical enforcement of trespassing/loitering rules.
—Condo association fees—they go up if vacancies go up—significant financial risk.
—Condo association management—a few Karens and you may wish you lived elsewhere.
You would seriously want to live in a development 50% “upscale” and 50% welfare/shelter population?
The common area expenses for that type of all arrangement would be enormous. Your monthly condo fees would probably be higher than your mortgage payment.
