In certain ways, a luxury condominium is different from an apartment. A luxury condo is a multi-unit building owned by another individual. An apartment is, on the other hand, a single house shared by a group of identical units. Condominiums have a high value in the market, if you intend to buy and have it leased in the long run or put the unit for sale, then you’re up for a good property investment. Although condos carry a personal touch, apartments are built similarly. With new appliances, luxury condominiums like Yorkwoods Condos in Toronto show exquisite designs and high-end finishes. Check our list of 8 luxury-themed condominiums that you should consider.
