I think the annual maintainace charges are the biggest con of all.
I pay 150 le for maintainance in my apartment block per month.
There are 16 units here...ok not big..but for this i have a large pool which is cleaned twice sometimes more a day
and is checked regular by the chloren guy.
We have 24 security and is cleaned constantly..it covers the out side lights bell boy etc.
We also have a part villa on Mubarek 7 where an English developer is charging £850 a year...just to clean the pool and 24 belboy...how do they get away with it.
There is a charge of £120 when you buy on mubarek 7 to join the residents unity which covers the general maintainace of the area this is a ONE OFF payment.
All i can see is that the developers see the annual charges as an excellent additional income
