    Not every building was poorly constructed and managed. You’re not the only one to be hit by levies that SUCK. I worked for a strata management firm for years so I do know that some people get hit with some nasty bills. And sometimes the levies are so high that you can’t even sell your unit even if you wanted to. It can ruin people. BUT, that’s not the norm. And it’s a completely separate issue from density as a concept. Most buildings are built well, and when managed properly will only see special levies in line with what you’d expect to maintain roofs and common grounds (they are not meant to cover anything but the common property).
