Some people think that too much money has been spent looking after and repairing old buildings, so we should knock down old buildings and build modern ones instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In my humble opinion, it depends on how we are able to build or renovate.
Also
, it depends on the amount of savings we have. I personally prefer to purchase an old building and renovate it as I am willing. But
first,
I have to make sure all the edges of the building are still has good condition. If the condition of a building has uncountable issues - like,

this
is essential for me, as all the documents and administrations rely on the owner first. So, when we want to reverse the ownership to our name, check the compatibility of the owner, and check the comprehensive of the documents of the building. Make sure it all goes well and matches with what the Government has set. When all the things above have been settled, it is time to make the design of the building's rejuvenation project.
This
one is quite tricky, as we need to find a great

who has experience in transforming the current building into the one suitable for us. Check the compatibility and the portfolio of the

before selecting them. After selecting one

that the project could be started. Between renovating the old building or just buying the modern and new ones, there is no correct or incorrect. Going back to your preference, your savings, your objective, renovating the old or buying the new ones are just as good.
