I'm currently considering buying a condo unit and it's on the 8th floor. However there's a BBQ pit just next to this condo block. There is limited units to choose from and this is so far the best in terms of floor level and price.

I'm quite concerned with the noise and smell of the BBQ. For those who have experience staying next to BBQ pit, I would like to find out from you whether it is really that bad or am I just being paranoid?

I'd stay away. You should also factor in noise levels.

IF people actually use the BBQ pit.

So far I only saw 2 occasion where people utilized it in my condo.

Other 365 days nobody bother.

this...



i wonder who will go bbq at there if that condo visitor car park are quite limited

My friend's luxury condo has BBQ party almost every week. Guests just park outside of the condo. The whole area smell like BBQ the entire weekend evening !! That's very bad. I hope my future condo doesn't have this problem.

my condo here, also seldom see ppl bbq.
but of cz avoid if possible

Nobody can tell you the future what is going to happen. Residents in every condo are different.

If in doubt, reconsider your decision.

Remember .... EASY TO BUY, DIFFICULT TO SELL.

The moment you're not happy about something
That's already a red flag

Just look for other level instead

Since noise and smell are yr concerns, it may not be a good idea to buy a unit next to a BBQ pit.
It might hardly be used at all. On the other hand, it might be used every week.
In any case I think 'prevention is better than cure'.

Better dont touch the unit, i guarantee will regret when you start to stay.

Thanks for all your inputs. My wife insisted to go with the unit besides the BBQ pit, on the 8th floor. The BBQ pit is not visible from the balcony though. However one of the smaller room windows can see the BBQ pit. Other units of choice are either low floors or facing west sun. In the end we went for the best of the worst units.

There r 3 other gourmet areas, 2 grilling pits and a teppanyaki pit, all spread out around the condo area. Hopefully the crowd will be diverted.
