What Could Work Against You
- Only 0 transactions were recorded in the past 12 months, so the price figures here rest on a thin sample — a single outlier deal can move the averages.
- At 12 units, this is a boutique development — fewer comparable sales to anchor valuations, and maintenance costs spread across a smaller fee base.
- Completed in 1988, the development is over 38 years old — budget for rising maintenance, dated M&E systems, and the possibility that value increasingly rests on en-bloc potential rather than the units themselves.
