Yes after you take everything into consideration, to me it is a no-brainer not to purchase on the Pearl at this time. A large part of ownership is to maximize control over your own expenses. To be directly responsible for and the ability to personally access the services needed to run your home. This part of the equation is being run by your developers who not only wish to charge for these necessities but do it at a HUGE profit to themselves. Not until an owner gets more control over their property and there is more transparency of what fees are required and accounting should anyone purchase. I would like to directly see what the management part of the fees constitutes. It has become obvious that these necessities will not be run efficiently to the benefit of the end-user.
Still what has me most concerned is the fact that these numbers thrown around are the starting fees. Just think
a few years from now. There will likely be annual increases further increasing the anxiety of the owners.
No peace of mind. If no peace of mind then why move there??? As I said a no-brainer. Would not mind living at the Pearl but no chance under those circumstances. And my guess is a good number of people will feel the same.
