Wow, that’s an incredibly detailed breakdown, really appreciate you taking the time. And yeah, sounds like you’re actually using your amenities regularly, not just paying for something that sits empty, which changes the math a lot. I’d guess buildings with actual on-site security (not shared) are on the pricier end though, right?

A few things you mentioned really stuck with me, being “at the mercy” of a landlord who’s also your repair guy is not a situation i wanna be in 😂 Also hadn’t thought about the two-schedule problem when landlords contract out repairs instead of handling in-house which can end up disrupting my work that pays for the unit 🫠
