Many people may think it's good to choose the top floor, but it's not like this. It can be said that most commercial houses are 32 stories high now, so it is very inconvenient to travel every day. Imagine going to work every day and stopping every three or four floors. Is it painful? Needless to say, you are bound to be late for work and waste your time.
Secondly, the top floor is hot in Leng Xia in winter and scorched by the sun in summer. The room is as hot as a steamer. You can sweat in two hours without going out for five minutes. The house itself is a toxic area. Some people may say, no, I have an artifact air conditioner, but it costs nothing. The photoelectric fee at this temperature is not a small expense. Coupled with the cold wind in winter, the air conditioner is turned on all year round.
Finally, the top floor leaks water. Some people may argue that developers are doing a good job of waterproofing now, but what about five, ten or twenty years later? Are you sure? Don't be cheated by developers, help them count the money. Stay long and try again. It is still a golden mountain.
On the contrary, the second floor is much more convenient, and it is convenient to travel on the first floor and go out for a walk. Second, it is safe enough to escape easily when something happens. The water pressure is very stable and there is almost no trouble. Many people retort that you have poor lighting and poor vision on the second floor. Frankly speaking, poor eyesight is true, but poor lighting remains to be discussed, because the houses now are different from the previous ones, and the spacing between buildings is wider. Although the light is not as good as the top floor, it is quite satisfactory, so why should I give up the convenience of the second floor and choose the trouble of the top floor? Would you? !
What a coincidence, the house I rented last time was the second floor, and this time it was the top floor. I will talk about the differences, advantages and disadvantages of the two according to my living experience on the second floor and the top floor, and then give some suggestions.
Advantages and disadvantages of the second floor Advantages and disadvantages of the second floor
1. Easy to travel. Living on the second floor, needless to say, whether there is an elevator or not, is very convenient, so I lifted my legs and went downstairs. In case of sudden fire, it is also convenient to escape. Of course, it is more convenient to have an elevator, not to say that you have to go upstairs and downstairs by elevator, but to be more convenient when you need an elevator, such as moving, or buying big household appliances and furniture.
It is warm all the year round. Although the house I used to live in was also connected to the north and south, the trees in the old community were very lush, so the front and back were covered tightly. Although it can still ventilate normally, the relative resistance is relatively large and the circulation is still relatively slow.
There is a lot of water. Because the floor is low, even if the water is stopped sometimes, there is still water left in the slow pipeline. Generally speaking, the amount of water is very large and abundant.
Disadvantages of the second floor
1. Affect lighting. Although not all low floors are shaded by trees, they are also easily shaded by the front and rear buildings. It will be dark most of the time, so you need to turn on the light.
2. The landscape is not good and there is a sense of depression. Because the lighting and landscape of the house are not good, it will be a little depressing to live in it. Of course, if the space is large and the height is relatively high, it will feel better.
Advantages and Disadvantages of the Top Floor Advantages of the Top Floor
1. Good lighting. Generally, the buildings and trees around the top floor are less shaded, and the lighting is good. Generally, the home is brighter and the mood is better.
2. The scenery is good. Climbing high and seeing far, the landscape on the top floor is definitely better than that on the second floor, and you will feel more open-minded, more free and less depressed.
3. Be quiet. Because it is the top floor, you don't have to worry about energetic children upstairs, or the noise of dragging stools and chairs, or even the sound of water pipes flushing in the dead of night.
4. clean. There are fewer people coming and going upstairs, and naturally there are fewer kinds of garbage and cockroaches and mosquitoes, which is much cleaner than the downstairs where people come and go.
The shortcomings of the top floor
1. Travel is difficult. It would be better to have an elevator, but it would be more tragic to have no elevator. When I first moved in, I thought it would be exercise, but after I moved in, I just got up and didn't want to come down, and I didn't want to go up when I got down. People become lazy instead.
2. heat. Theoretically, the top floor must be hotter, but now Shanghai has changed from flat to sloping, and it will be properly insulated after adding a layer. However, it may be that Shanghai is not too hot in summer these two years, so I feel better.
3. Water leaks. If it is flat-topped, it will easily seep water over time. Of course, if a layer is covered on a flat slope, water seepage and water leakage will also be reduced.
It is suggested that the second floor and the top floor have their own advantages and disadvantages. So how to choose? The key is to combine your own needs. If there are elderly people at home, it is recommended to choose the second floor to facilitate travel, and the elderly have more time. It is certainly more convenient to go upstairs and downstairs. If young people live, if it is a duplex with a covered spire, it is recommended to choose the top floor, which has a wide view and is relatively quiet.
Of course, if there is an elevator, try to choose one with an elevator. Whether it is on the second floor or the top floor, it is always more convenient to have an elevator.
If we only have two floors and a top floor when buying a house, then old J's suggestion is to choose the top floor. The top floor is the best of the two floors. So what is the reason for choosing the top floor?
Many people have a deep misunderstanding about the top floor, always thinking that the top floor brings sultry and leaking water. But the reality is that the present construction is very different from the past. The top floor is fine now! There is almost no water leakage and sultry weather.
Advantages of penthouse:
The top floor has a wide view and excellent lighting. The top floor has smooth airflow, good ventilation effect and fresh air. There are no residents on the top floor and they are not disturbed by people upstairs. The environment is much quieter. At the same time, many top floors also give balconies and attics, and the cost performance will be improved.
In contrast, the problems of long waiting time and low water pressure in the elevator on the top floor can be overcome. After all, in today's high-rise buildings, it is rare for two elevators to have problems at the same time.
Second floor:
In fact, the second floor has many benefits. The low floor is convenient for escape, and there is no need for secondary pressurized water outlet. At the same time, you can get in close contact with flowers and plants. But in contrast, the floor is too low, the lighting is not good, and the mosquito harassment is more serious.
So, by contrast, we still choose the top floor!
Neither the top floor nor the second floor is the best choice for the floor, but if I have to choose one, I will simply use an indicator to decide whether the top floor is for the terrace or the attic, and if so, choose the top floor; If not, choose the second floor. Let me briefly talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the top floor and the reasons for choosing this one.
Top layer defect temperature difference
The insulation capacity of the top floor is quite poor, and it is hot in Leng Xia in winter-that kind of heat and cold is not the kind of pain you think in the street. It's a bit like a sauna when it's hot and a bit like a tuyere when it's cold. Anyway, it's painful.
But if there is an attic or terrace, the pain will be much less-there is an attic, and the roof downstairs is not directly connected to the outdoor, so the pain will naturally be much less. It's nice to have a terrace. You can build a sun room on the terrace and plant green plants to enhance the thermal insulation capacity of the room.
Poor water resistance
It is certain that the roof leaks rain! A better property may have its roof repaired regularly. If it's a little worse, it's up to you to fix it.
The rainwater leaking from the roof is not a drop of water in our imagination, but falls down the corner, and the walls, wallpaper and ceiling will be completely destroyed.
If there is a terrace, the maintenance work will naturally belong to the owner. At that time, I would pay some money for maintenance myself every year-if I built a sun room, even maintenance would be exempted. If there is an attic, it can also be buffered. The big deal is to destroy the attic, which has little effect on most decoration.
It's inconvenient to go upstairs and downstairs.
All high-rise residents have this kind of trouble-although there is an elevator, it will take a long time to wait for the morning and evening rush hour. When you meet a dizzy person in the elevator, your life will be very painful.
It can be seen that if there is a terrace or attic on the top floor, there is only one disadvantage-it is inconvenient to go up and down the stairs. If it is a multi-storey house, it is a bit reluctant to count this problem as a shortcoming.
Top-floor dominant lighting
The lighting on the top floor is very good-compared with the second floor, it can't be better! No matter how close the building is, the lighting on the top floor will not be affected, and it can still be unaffected all year round.
The second floor is different, and the residential area with a long distance between buildings can not affect the lighting all year round.
noise
The second floor is closer to the ground. If there are cars and people talking loudly on the road, you can still hear them clearly on the second floor.
Don't worry about the top floor at all-even beside the national highway, the noise that can be heard on the top floor is minimal.
good
If there is no attic or terrace, the price of the top floor is generally the lowest-if there is an attic or terrace, the price of the top floor will not be reduced, but will be converted into a gift area.
But anyway, there must be a discount on the top floor.
These three small advantages make the top floor unsalable. But compared with the above three shortcomings, it is still a lot worse. So it's the same sentence: don't send the attic, don't buy the attic!
Hello everyone, I will not hesitate to choose the top floor for the following reasons:
It's as hot as summer, so southern cities have to turn on air conditioning, not to mention the hot top floor. At present, I live on the fourth floor of the escalator, and I have to turn on the air conditioner as hot as it is. Air conditioning costs can't be saved, so it's better to live higher and let the lighting and landscape make up for the living experience.
I have seen many leaky houses on the top floor, including rough houses that have not been decorated for more than ten years. As long as the quality is good, there is little water leakage.
By contrast, the second floor is much worse.
If the greening rate of your community is still particularly high, the light is blocked, there is no light at home, and the wealth is not prosperous, then the lighting must be blocked.
Mosquitoes, mice and ants have poor light, and damp rooms will breed small animals. Turn on the light suddenly at night, and countless cockroaches at home can always surprise you.
Water-resistant Nowadays, many high-end buildings adopt the same floor drainage technology, but many buildings do not have such a configuration.
There are basically no multi-storey buildings for sale now, and the probability of buying the sixth floor of the escalator is not great. After the second floor of the elevator room, it was sold like chicken ribs. Whoever buys it knows.
My previous house was on the second floor, but it was sold later. The present house is on the 12 floor. Here, let me talk about my feelings.
Advantages on the second floor 1. Considering that the old people may not be able to use the elevator, we can climb the second floor and go upstairs. If we want to move things, we can take the elevator. This is the first advantage.
Considering the water pressure, the water pressure on the second floor is very stable. It is said that the water above 10 layer is pressurized twice, and the water is dirty when it is pumped up. The water pressure is also unstable. So consider the second floor.
3. It is convenient to travel. It's true. You don't have to wait for the elevator.
Why sell the second floor? 1. It's too noisy. Stop and walk past the window, as if never stopping.
2. Security issues. Maybe I was too worried. I'm always afraid that someone will break through the window.
Because we stayed on the second floor for a short time and didn't find the toilet blocked, we didn't know what would happen if we stayed for a long time. In the end, we were too noisy, but we sold it at a low price and felt a big loss.
The feeling on the twelfth floor is 1. It's really good to look at the distant scenery on the balcony when your vision is wide and your mood is low.
It is hot in summer and cold in winter. The twelfth floor is really hotter than the ground floor, and the air conditioner is basically turned on all day in summer. In a small town in the south of China, the average temperature in winter is about 10 degrees. I used to live on the lower floor, so I didn't need to turn on the air conditioner. Not now, it will be very cold.
When the typhoon comes, it will be miserable. The crumbling glass windows made me tremble with fear.
It is difficult to wait for the elevator in the morning rush hour.
Conclusion If I were given a choice now, I would choose the sixth floor. If there is a power failure, I can climb the stairs. Don't worry about typhoon days, the view is acceptable and it won't be too noisy.
In short, there is nothing perfect in the world, no matter how you choose, you will be a little sorry, depending on what you like best!
Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Let's analyze it.
If you choose the second floor, there are several reasons.
One season influence
The top floor is hot in summer and cold in winter. Because summer is the top floor, it is exposed to the sun. Even with insulation, the temperature is extremely high. In winter, because there is no floor heating upstairs, the temperature is definitely lower than that in the middle or lower floor.
Second, the power outage problem.
If there is a power outage on the top floor, it is extremely inconvenient to go up and down the stairs, so in the long run, the risk of power outage on the second floor is much lower than that on the top floor.
3. Water pressure and water quality problems
Generally, the top floor is relatively high, and it will face the big problem of secondary pressurization. If pressurized twice, the water quality may be poor, and the water pressure on the top floor may be low, which may lead to problems such as small water flow and difficulty in starting the water heater.
4. Risks in extreme cases
If a series of extreme problems such as fire and earthquake occur, the risk of low floors is definitely less than that of high floors. It's easier to escape
If you choose the top floor, you have the following advantages.
First, the gift area is large, the lighting is good and the sight is good.
The top floor is generally the area of a given attic, so it has great advantages in area. The height of the attic is generally higher, much higher than that of the downstairs.
Second, the diversity of life on the top floor.
There is usually a big balcony on the top floor, so some things can be designed in the design process, such as gardens, fish ponds, swings and very comfortable details in life.
Third, in many places, the top floor can be added.
We have encountered many cases of lax property management before, and many owners of the top floor have added a layer to the top floor.
If you can add another floor to the top floor, it will be very, very affordable
The above is a detailed analysis of the top floor and the second floor, which can be chosen objectively according to personal circumstances.
What a coincidence, when our family bought a house, only the second floor and the top floor were left. The situation at that time was like this. Our building faces the street, with a shop on the first floor. If you choose the second floor, there is a very large balcony near the window, about 100 square meter. The salesperson said that you can make a door and enclose the balcony. It is equivalent to 100 square meters of hanging gardens. The disadvantage is that high-rise buildings may throw objects into the air, and there are shops on the first floor, which is too noisy and the light is not good. If a restaurant is opened downstairs, will there be mice and the like that will affect the living? On the top floor17th floor, Zhonghu gave a small attic of about 50 square meters. You can do the stairs directly at home or take the stairs from the outside, with a separate entrance door. I liked the top floor at that time, because it was basically two completely independent houses, with three bedrooms below and one room, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom in the attic above. Then we squeezed through the crowd, bought the top floor, blocked the indoor stairs and turned into two houses. We live on the17th floor. At present, the attic has been rented out, and the annual rent can cover almost one-third of the mortgage. The plan is that the attic can be my mother's retirement home or our retirement home in the future. Even if I go back to my hometown when I am old, these two houses are estimated to be enough for the elderly. The attic has another advantage, not counting the property fee. So, I think the most important thing I have done is to buy the right house.
If I could choose again, I wouldn't choose the house on the top floor. I really regret it.
Don't listen to others say how good the house on the top floor is, only to find that it is not as good as expected, and may be worse than expected.
I bought the house on 20 15, and it was really hot at that time. Every time I go to a real estate, it is basically only late. Generally, the floors are the third floor, the fourth floor, the fifth floor and the top floor.
House prices are getting higher every day. I was afraid that there would be no such so-called rotten houses in the future, so I discussed with my wife whether to choose the lower floor or the top floor.
At that time, there were floors to choose from, the third floor, the fourth floor and the top floor, and the price was the same. So my wife and I discussed it for a while and thought that the problem of the top floor could be easily solved if we lived high and looked far away. Now the house basically won't leak water, and it can be solved by turning on the air conditioner in summer.
So I chose the house on the top floor. Of course, I was very happy when I bought a house, but after I moved in, I found that I was happy for only a while, and there seemed to be more and more troubles behind me.
The house was renovated on 20 17 and moved in during the National Day holiday. When I first moved into the house, I felt that everything was wonderful. Maybe the number of residents in the community was less than110, so I lived very comfortably.
As we live longer and longer, we gradually find that something is wrong. First of all, the temperature difference of the weather makes us feel most uncomfortable.
The house was moved in on National Day, and the temperature is gradually dropping. After spring, summer came, and then I felt the power of real summer.
Life here in Guangdong is still quite miserable. It often rains cats and dogs, and it comes at once without warning. When going out to do business, you can only close all the doors and windows in case it rains.
The outdoor temperature in Guangdong often hovers between 33 and 35 degrees. The house on the top floor is exposed to the sun from morning till night, and the indoor temperature is at least 40 degrees. When I came back from work, I didn't want to go into the house at that moment.
In order to solve the indoor temperature problem, I specially installed an intelligent air conditioner. It takes me about 40 minutes to get home from work. When I get off work, I use my mobile phone to remotely turn on the air conditioner at home, and the temperature has just dropped.
It takes 40 minutes for the indoor temperature to cool down, which is horrible to think about. And the air conditioner won't turn off, and it will be very hot soon. After a day of exposure, the temperature in the wall will be completely released after five or six hours.
Even if you go to sleep in your room at night, you should turn on the air conditioner half an hour in advance before you dare to enter the room, otherwise the room will be like a stuffy stove.
The summer time in Guangdong is particularly long. There are basically 300 days a year when the temperature is above 28 degrees, and the monthly electricity bill is twice as high as before I rented a house.
Waiting for the elevator is getting longer and longer. A building basically has 150 households, two stairs, and five households need elevators. With the continuous increase of the resident population, the waiting time for the elevator is almost 10 minute from the original two minutes.
What impressed me the most was that I broke an elevator, and when the elevator arrived, I lost my temper and there were so many people crowded there. I ended up 20 minutes late for work that day.
Many people say that they live in a high place and see far away. Actually, I quite agree with this sentence. But when they just live in the house, they just look at the novelty outside. After living for a long time, they don't even want to go out on the balcony twice, because the noise outside is really too loud, especially in the middle of the night, there are road trucks 300 meters away, and the sound passing by at night can be clearly heard, and the brightness of the sound is several times higher than that of the following floors.
In fact, there is quite a lot of dust in high-rise buildings. The higher you live, the more dust you have. This really won't lie to everyone. There is no building in the high-rise building to keep out dust, so the probability of building a house is several times higher than that in the middle and low floors. As long as you don't clean the house for two days, you can basically see the dust by touching it with your hands.
Spitting out the shortcomings of so many high floors does not mean that high floors have no advantages, but the advantages of high floors are particularly obvious. For example, lighting and ventilation are invincible in the whole building.
There are few mosquitoes in high-rise residential buildings, so there will be no humidity. There is another key factor. The height of the house on the top floor of my house is exactly three meters.
If I had to choose again, I wouldn't choose the house on the top floor.
Maybe everyone's living habits are different, but I have lived and experienced it myself, and I know that the house on the top floor has both a painful side and a happy side.
Think about the days when I rented a house. Actually, I'm really happy. At that time, I chose the fifth floor to rent a house. Actually, the house is really good, and it's not as bad as I thought.
Before, the house on the fifth floor had good lighting and would not be blocked by trees, but the overall ventilation line was still poor, and there would be returning to Nantian and mosquitoes.
However, it does not affect my normal life experience. Going back to Nantian is only ten days a year. As for mosquitoes, you can make mosquito screens and separate them.
There is little noise and dust in the house. Don't say anything. Look at the beautiful scenery outside. Just looking at the garden is better than looking at the beautiful scenery outside.
Specially consulted several companies downstairs, and they gave the answer that the house on the top floor is easier to sell, and the price of the house on the top floor is a little higher than that of the house on the lower floor.
There will be such a reason, many property buyers also had the mentality of buying the top floor at that time, thinking that the advantages of the top floor outweigh the disadvantages.
Now that the house has been bought, don't say you have too many regrets. I also considered changing rooms, but it is basically difficult to buy them back at this price after selling them.
Unless I really gave birth to a second child and the house is not enough to live in, I will consider changing houses, otherwise everyone will live in the house on the top floor first.
If you have bamboo shoots, you can still consider selling them and buying another set, otherwise you really have to wait.
I often travel in my early years, and I will rent a house if I live in other places for a long time.
I have rented it. The first floor has a garden, the second floor, the third floor, the middle floor and the penthouse.
Let's talk about the second floor of the landlord first. If it is a busy area facing the street, I advise you to give it up as soon as possible, especially the bedroom windows facing the street and the road. Not only noisy, but also dusty. The second floor is convenient, but it is also relative. There is an elevator, but I don't really feel the height of the floor. Just get used to it.
Living on the second floor, lighting is a problem. In addition to being blocked by other buildings, it is also easy to be blocked by trees in the community. I may not feel it when I first moved in. In another five or eight years, the saplings will be able to "shelter from the wind and rain" for you. When the seasons change, the leaves return to their roots, and when the community is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, it will also think of big trees. It depends on what mood you are in to see them. There are also irregular mosquito spraying, road reconstruction, installation of an infrared detector, community monitoring head, etc., which does not guarantee that your bedroom window sill is just facing a night vision camera; Cable TV, telecom operators, street lamp maintenance, get something, it is estimated that it will also disturb your maintenance! If the community or street thinks there is a garbage station under your windowsill, you don't have to be afraid, because even if you want to object, there won't be only one person fighting, right? The opinions downstairs are even bigger!
Of course, not so much will happen to you. If so, your house is too important to the community! Just rent it to the aunt of the neighborhood Committee for office.
I lived in the duplex of 1 1 building. The top floor is really hot in summer, but no matter which floor I live in, the air conditioner is always on, and I haven't calculated how much the electricity bill will be. The floor is high, the vision is good, and the mood is comfortable, but it will also be aesthetically tired after a long time! I stayed in an apartment hotel on the 48th floor for a month, which is high enough! It's just that I was very excited to see Yunjuan Yunshu two weeks ago, and I was more concerned about whether to take an umbrella when going out to work. We went back to the top floor 1 1. Although it is a duplex, there are still some places on the top floor that are common. Maybe you accidentally planted several base station antennas and locked them with locks. They are also thieves. They don't turn it on, just wait for you to know and there is no response. You can complain, you can object, you can protest, you can call to complain, and the property and operators will come to grind you. Maybe you won in the end, or maybe you moved 10 meter to the neighbor's house next door. In short, you are worried. The floor is high, windy and rainy, and clothes are often blown off. Look who grabbed your underwear. The floor is high and the water is low, which is actually very easy to handle. A booster pump can also be installed. However, when it comes to the difficulty of disaster escape, I really haven't thought about it!
The trouble of waiting for elevators at the top actually depends on the number of elevators and the number of households. How many floors are there?
I have lived in the duplex of 1 1 building, with one staircase and four households; On the 26th floor of a 30-story building, there are 5 households with 2+ 1 stairs (divided into two floors, two of which only go to the upper floor, and the first floor stops at any floor); 18 floor 12 floor, two stairs and four households. There must be some waiting, but I don't think it's much trouble.
If you are used to living on a high floor and go back to living on a low floor, it takes time to get used to this depression. I always feel that the window lattice outside the window is looking at you up and down, like a pair of small eyes.
If I had a choice, I would buy them all, one for my own use and one for rent. Come and live again after a while!
