Should You Invest in a Studio Apartment?
Studio apartments are small but functional living spaces, which are becoming increasingly popular in the American property market. Typical studio tenants include young professionals or students looking to strike out on their own. They often seek practical, stylish, and low-maintenance living accommodations. Also known as bachelor apartments, studios are self-contained units with private bathrooms. They usually follow a simple yet functional floorplan where your den, bedroom, and kitchen occupy the same space. While you likely won’t have sufficient space to entertain guests or bring in heavy furniture, it’s a pretty solid choice for students, singles, and young couples who can’t afford to buy or rent bigger properties yet. A studio also gives them the…

Real Estate: Appeal Beyond Price

How Safe (or Risky) is a Pre-Selling Condo as an OFW Investment?
A recent survey reveals that overseas Filipino workers prefer to invest their hard-earned money in real estate out of all investment vehicles available. Despite the rapid urbanization of many parts of Mega Manila, the National Capital Region remains the most sought-after location. In Metro Manila, one type of property is king: condominiums. While buying a ready-for-occupancy unit promises immediate ROI, the pre-selling kind is attractive in its own way.

A WikiLawn analysis of new data from the U.S. Census Bureau shows that among the country’s 50 biggest metros, the Austin area boasts the largest share of homes (nearly 3.3 percent) built in 2014 or later.
