Built in a cookie cutter approach to meet the needs of all investors, with as minimal regard to livability as possible. Yes, communist housing blocks were the real dystopia. I am smart
Not that I want to live there but what the hell is up with that first paragraph?
Your new suburban rental has granite kitchen countertops, built to withstand even the most hard-wearing tenant.
Cool, granite countertops are expensive and usually the premium option. What am I supposed to want, formica?
The neighbors next door have the exact same laundry machine.
Nooo I wanted the tricked-out one with chrome rims, a spoiler, and racing stripes. Damn my inability to access my rights as an American consumer to choose from one of 17 functionally identical options!
How is this any worse than being stuck with whatever boneheaded decisions the previous owner made that you inherit when you buy an existing property?
If you buy a house, you could at least replace the wash machine with one that has chrome rims, if you so desired.
That would be against the terms of service and would result in fines and or eviction.
this looks like a prison
Mao please come back : (
That’s the wrong photo. They’re building “luxury” condos/apartments that they can sell/rent at higher prices.
In bad country they allow monopolistic corporations with free government money to sweep in and outprice entire towns. They purposefully use expensive construction with their crony developers to make it so no one is able to grasp on to generational wealth. This keeps the population in a constant dread of making any mistake that would make them homeless.
