A list of things to know about when buying a condo

Didier Malagies • January 29, 2024

Find out if you have a dog and what is the weight they accept. I just had a deal fall through due to the dog weighing 40 pounds and the weight allowed was 25 pounds. If they have an engineering report done review it. Are they going to charge an assessment? or association fees going up?  You need to do your homework. If the budget has more than 10% reserves that is good, you can see how the board is handling the money. Also, the questionnaire asks how the delinquents are doing, which is really important. If people are not paying then who has to make up for that?
