I purchased a condo here mid-2006, and have been very happy thus far. Sure, there are adjustments to be made - like getting used to the laundry room, or waiting on an occasional repair to be done - but I have yet to find issues with the condo board, management company, and/or building staff. When you live in a property that is combined rent/own, there are risks and you have to be prepared for a number of possible negatives.

My utility bills are perfectly reasonable - my electric has never topped $50 - and I only turned my heat on ONCE in the last bitter winter. 18" concrete floors keep 99% of the noise away, and while the carpeting could stand to be replaced, the building is kept quite clean. Parking in the building is not the best, but more affordable and secure alternatives are available elsewhere in the neighborhood.

I think I'll stay here for awhile - I love the neighborhood, the property values are on the rise (what with finite development opportunities in the immediate area), and the proximity to transportation and the Loop cannot be beat!
