Should You Buy a House or a Condo?

Click on the following link to read: Should You Buy a House or a Condo?

Finding the location you want to be in is key.  If you love the location you probably already know 75% of what you want.  Some areas are mostly condos where others are mostly detached homes.  Knowing the area you want is the first step to deciding and makes it much easier and time efficient for both you and your Realtor.

Detached homes are more expensive than most condos in the metropolitan city.  So, location is key but other very important factors are your budget and what you have saved for a down payment, what your preapproved for and comfortable with as for estimated monthly expenses.  Keep in mind that with a condo, you will be paying a maintenance fee.

Here are some other questions to ask yourself when trying to decide what is best for you.  Do you want a yard? Do you have a pet? Do you like to do renovations?  Remember, home ownership and condo ownership have very different responsibilities!

If you have any further questions, or have decided which one you would like to buy.  Please let me know and I can show you active listings that fit you and your lifestyle!
