Probably has to do with new condos being des cages à lapin, fait avec des matériaux cheap qui faut que tu répares sans arrêt. Sans parler des frais de condo ridicules.

Rabbit cages and cheap materials

[Sheilbh]

Yeah - I have the same fear with any new builds here

Rabbit cages and cheap materials

I'm thinking both. We famously have an inspection problem with our building code. No matter how sufficient it is or not barely matters if there's no one to check.
