MaKay Swanson Real Estate Let's Get Moving

Sticker shock keeping you on the sidelines? Condos might help.

The median condo sold for $380,000 in June, while the median single-family home went for $446,400. That's a gap of more than $66,000.

Part of that is because condos are usually smaller. But that's exactly the point. Smaller square footage can mean a smaller price tag.

So, if you can make less space work for your life, it may work for your budget, too.

For a lot of buyers, especially first-timer buyers, a condo or townhome is the difference between waiting and owning.

The “Take It or Leave It” Attitude Is Fading from the Market – What That Means for You Negotiations are back. More buyers are asking for better deals, and more sellers are giving them. Builders are throwing in extras, too.

And here's how that's possible. Life doesn't wait for perfect mortgage rates. People still get married. Families grow. Jobs change.

At some point, waiting becomes harder than moving. So serious buyers still take the plunge.

So, if you've been wondering whether there are still buyers out there...

There are.
