Hi,
I just arrived in HK yesterday and I am now visiting some apartments this week while staying in a friend's house.
Yesterday, I had a look at "MetroTown/Le Point" and Ocean Shore. I just walked in a real estate agency over there.
I must say the environment is really very nice (huge swimming pools, nice buildings, gym ...) but I was really disapointed by the sizes of the rooms in the apartments I visited. I'm new in HK so I not very familiar with sizes here but rooms %that% small ?? Master room about 80sq feet I guess and other rooms about 50-60..
I guess price is OK but the feeling I get is that all the money is going into paying the compound looks and the facilities which I think are 10x bigger and nicer than necessary. I feel it's like living in paradise but being stuck in a shoebox haha.
Does anyone have some feedback on this ? Did I get the wrong impression or something ?
Here are a few prices I got, not sure what to say since I just walked into the first agency I saw :
Ocean Shore :
1 room 546 sq ft 11k
2 rooms 687 sq ft 11.5K
Metro Town :
2 rooms 638sq ft 12.5k
3 rooms with storage room 943sq ft 17.5k
Did not see a single foreigner when I was there. I do get the impression some people on this forum live there though right ?
