Buying A Home – Learn These 7 Condo Facts Before Choosing One
If you’re a homebuyer, owning a home may be the ultimate goal. However, your budget may dictate a less expensive option such as a condo. A condo allows you to own the internal space which is bordered by the walls, ceilings, and floors. The remaining brick walls, sidewalks, external stairwells, swimming pools and garden areas make up the common areas managed by the community of homeowners. Some positive features of condo life include:
1) Reasonable Costs – Condos tend to cost less than buying a house, although the opposite can be true in major metropolitan or resort areas. Maintenance costs are also less since the community shares the upkeep costs such as landscaping, roofing, and some insurance.
2) Get To Know Your Neighbors Better – A community of condo’s with common recreation areas and planned activities gives you greater opportunity to get acquainted with your neighbors.
3) Less Upkeep – One advantage of belonging to an association is you won’t need to devote a lot of time maintaining the common areas of your property. You also get to use a community pool or gym without having to pay a separate service to maintain it.
Now let’s examine the disadvantages of buying a condo:
4) Rules Galore – As a condo owner, you’ll be bound to follow a master deed or Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&R’s). This document governs the community association and all condo owners. Basically your rights to common space and how you can use your condo are limited by this document.
5) Lower Resale – As you compare properties, you’ll find condos don’t appreciate as fast as a house, so the resale value will be lower.
6) You’ll Have To Settle For Less Privacy – The fact you have to share common areas, walls and ceilings should clue you in to the fact you’ll have less privacy as a condo owner. Another disadvantage is the loss of backyard space. A condo typically has very limited yard space for children or pets.
