What I will not hide from you
Every project has weaknesses. An agent not mentioning them does not make them go away — it just means you find out after you have signed. Here is what is actually wrong with this one.
About 10 years old; interiors in some units are dated
Ordinary developer brand; secondary liquidity is moderate
Limited public information; unit sizes and bedroom counts need on-site verification
