What does “luxury rental” even mean anymore it seems like the “luxury” is that it’s new construction and not run down

Cheap parts that look expensive so they can jack up the price.

My old apartment complex in Newington advertises their apartments as “luxury.” Carpets and linoleum, white appliances, Formica countertops. They re-stained and polyurethaned the doors without cleaning them so there were long strands of hair sealed onto the door surfaces.

Luxury actually does have standards for construction, it’s anything above builder grade. The reason we have so many luxury apartments is that you can’t charge high enough rent on builder grade build outs to make a profit

Builder grade is boob lights, no fans, Home Depot cabinets, uneven tile floors, flat white paint, the cheapest carpet imaginable, laminated counter tops.

Which is exactly what was in my last "luxury" apartment. It had black appliances instead of white though so it was "upgraded" according to the leasing office

Run down was the luxury of yesterday.
That's what wear and tear and regular use does.

I’ve done work with toll brothers and their stuff seemed pretty decent. I’d buy from them.
