Honestly the newer towers in Metrotown will NOT age well. They are owned & occupied by a very large contingent of people from China (I am chinese so I know what we are about) who do not give 2 shits about building maintenance. They only care about low strata fees and I doubt they have done anything other than the bare minimum in maintenance. Honestly, I would find a condo with a strata full of middle aged/older white people. Your strata fees will be higher but they will ensure that all proactive & required building maintenance is completed on schedule.
