What Could Work Against You

- The 16-unit size cuts both ways: exclusivity, but thinner resale liquidity and higher per-unit maintenance contributions than larger estates.

It is a weaker fit for yield-focused investors and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. OCR (Outside Central Region) location with rental demand profile worth running through our Rental Yield Calculator.
