first time renting a condo. help me make a choice.
i’m currently in the hunt for a condo unit to rent around ortigas since I have to move for work. i have narrowed my options down to two choices so i was hoping you guys could help me decide or give your advice:
condo 1:
- 15k per month (incl. assoc dues)
- bare studio unit but with aircon installed so would still need to buy addtl. furniture & appliances
- 27 sqm inner unit (mobile signal is weak)
- 5 mins walk to work
condo 2:
- 16k per month (incl. assoc dues)
- fully furnished already (aircon, ref, bed, microwave, induction cooker)
- 24 sqm studio but converted to be a 1BR
- 15-20 mins walk to work
which do you think would be the more logical choice here? or for you what would be the deciding factor when choosing a condo? feel free to ask clarifications or more information as well if needed.
