What exactly makes a condo a condo? A condo is a separate unit or portion of a multi-unit, or a multi-unit structure or property in which people own individual units and an undivided interest in common areas, typically owned by the Homeowners Association (HOA).
Pros Of Buying A Condo
Many people enjoy the convenience of owning a condo since they know the HOA and property management people are looking after all the day-to-day operational details of the development or building. This can be especially great if you are buying property as a second home and you know you won’t be there full-time. There are many condos to choose from, and perhaps many in the same development. This makes the comparison of different condo units a bit easier than comparing different single-family homes. Condos are typically more affordable and can be a good choice for you. It might also allow you to experience owning property in the Summit County area before deciding on buying a larger and more expensive Single Family Home.
Cons Of Buying A Condo
But there are some downsides to buying a Condo as well that you might want to consider. Some people don’t like the communal living arrangement in a big condo building. Some may want more privacy or more space than a condo can provide. It’s also possible that condos are rented out in the rental market. This means your neighbors could be changing frequently and you never get to meet the actual owner of neighboring condo units. Others think that the HOA fees are too expensive, especially in larger condo buildings that offer more amenities.
When looking at condos you will want to look around at the up-keep of the common areas. This is important because poorly kept grounds may mean that there are limited resources for the management team within the HOA. Your real estate agent should be able to help you access information on the HOA and guide you on what they think about the maintenance and state of the general condo building.
