I wish I had bought a condo on the top floor. A herd of elephants moved in above me. Man, they are noisy.

I'm lucky.  The guy above me lives alone, and doesn't stomp around much at all.  He disappears every single weekend, so he's not home then at all.  I assume he must spend his weekends over at a significant others...

It works.  The initial plan when my ex was around was to possibly buy a townhouse, as we could've managed on two incomes.



Then she split before that happened, so I just bought a condo instead.

 Since when?  Did you move?

The owner is renting it out and the tennants have kids. I swear those kids wear cement shoes.

Sound travels very well through floors.  This is a wood-framed building, but the floors do have a thin layer of cement poured in between them.  You can still hear footsteps.



I think only a true concrete building could eliminate sounds...

Highrise concrete buildings are the way to go. Not many in Barrie though.

In Langley we don't permit high rise buildings (yet), so they are essentially all wood framed.



Concrete pays only when you go tall, which most other municipalities around here allow, and are doing...

I've only seen tall concrete condo buildings.

Low-rise concrete frame would be too expensive to build, so it's reserved for high rise.



Put it this way...  They guy that could afford a low-rise concrete framed condo would probably just buy a townhouse or a detached anyhow...

I would never want to live in a condo.
