IMO: Anything that’s not a converted unit or a 5-over-1, and where the construction company purchased insulation from somewhere that isn’t a dollar store
Ha ha yeah, in theory at lot of things are great - I’ve been in a lot of new build appartments recently and you can hear the neighbours in all of them, they’re expensive ones too

And I live in a cheap one where you can’t. It’s not impossible.
