Short answer：Higher floors are not automatically more suitable or more valuable. Compare outlook, noise, daylight, lift reliance, condition and price without a universal floor premium.
Compare similar flats
Control orientation, layout, area, finish and timing before attributing a price difference to floor. Noise can reach both low and high floors; inspect the actual environment.
Consider daily use
Observe lift waits, maintenance arrangements, stairs and household mobility needs. Nearby development may change outlook, but rumours alone cannot establish the impact on a particular floor.
Before deciding
- Visit by day and night
- Compare completed sales and total cost
- Use verifiable surrounding-development information
