Choosing your unit: floor, exposure and what a view is worth

Within a single building, price varies with floor level and exposure. Higher generally costs more, and south and southwest exposures usually command a premium for light, while north units stay cooler and east units get morning sun.

The bigger factor is what is around you. Ask what is approved or proposed on adjacent sites, whether the tower has a podium that blocks lower floors, and whether your unit faces an internal courtyard or another phase of the same development.

Also weigh the practical trade-offs: very high floors mean longer elevator waits and stronger wind on balconies, while lower floors mean street noise. Ask for the site plan and the surrounding development context, in writing.
