Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is how sound travels between apartments. While the building is generally well constructed, you can occasionally hear noise from neighbours, especially during quieter hours. It’s not a major issue, but something to be aware of if you’re sensitive to noise. I’d also recommend checking how the heating and ventilation system works early on, as it can take a bit of time to get used to the settings and find what’s most comfortable. On the positive side, I wish I had realised sooner how responsive the building management team is, as it makes it much easier to deal with any small issues that come up. My advice to a new neighbour would be to report any concerns early and make use of the facilities, as they’re one of the best parts of living here.
