🏢 Do balconies really add value? 🤔

For years, a balcony was a must-have feature. But are buyers, tenants and investors starting to think differently?

💰 Balcony waterproofing can lead to expensive strata repairs
🏗️ Planter boxes and membranes can create long-term maintenance issues
🌿 Many newer buildings now offer shared rooftop terraces and entertaining spaces
📺 And let's be honest... how often do we actually use our balconies?

For investors especially, a well-located apartment without a balcony can sometimes mean fewer maintenance headaches and lower future costs.

The takeaway? Don't judge a property by the balcony alone. Consider the lifestyle, maintenance and long-term value. 🏡
