Cottage Creek Condos in Bellingham

11 new condos were listed with an average price of $277,277 ($190/sq.ft.) However, 5 of these 11 new condos were Cottage Creek conversions. The average price of the newly listed Cottage Creek condos was $118,000 (184/sq.ft.) Cottage Creek is an interesting condominium complex. Originally built in the late 1970’s as apartment buildings, Cottage Creek is now being converted into condominiums.

 

Condo Conversions

Converting apartment buildings to condominiums has become a popular practice over the last few years. Most of the work necessary in completing a condo conversion occurs in writing the Condominium Declaration and Bylaws, as well as the Public Offering Statement. It is important to hire an attorney experienced in condo conversions when undertaking a project of this scope.
