condos.jpgIf you have made a payment on reservations for a condominium complex that has had a stoppage of new unit construction, and has less than 25% occupancy, consider bailing out. There might be a problem with the developer and the lack of continuing sales of units may be a sign of a forthcoming raise in the payments needed to maintain or get your unit.

For those who have the benefit of luxury homes and have ample cash to spend this is a very easy endeavor allowing them to live out the rest of their years in the environment they love and the place they have called home for many years.
