Ludlow VT Real Estate: Wall To Wall Or Buy It All?

By
Real Estate Agent with Bean Group

One of the most fundamental questions when considering purchasing Ludlow VT real estate is whether to purchase a single family home or a condo.  Although there are many factors to consider, the answer really lies in the buyer's preference and lifestyle.

A condo might be a good fit for those in search of a more urban, low-maintenance lifestyle.  Condos typically resemble apartments with several units in the same building or complex sharing amenities (although they can also be duplexes, free-standing buildings, etc.).  Although there are monthly maintenance fees involved with condo ownership, that also means, owners are not responsible for any maintenance outside their own four walls.  Because condos are a shared community, ownership is often limited to a specific space.  

For many home-buyers, single-family homes offer more privacy and control.  When purchasing a single-family home, the buyer owns the entire building as well as the land on which it sits.  Likewise, this means the maintenance of the structure and the land is the owner's sole responsibility.

I'll take the condo Irene! Right now my plate is full - I'd love for someone to have the grass mowed for me - and perhaps have a pool I didn't have to clean!

Irene: I like to discuss the concept of limited commonn areas when selling condos, when we say you "own from the walls in" many people think they have given up all exterior privacy. The deck coming off your slider is for the most part considered limited common area, which suggests the association will repair or replace it when the time comes but you have the right as the unit owner to enjoy the spot without neighbors taking up residence since you have the best view from your deck. I this concept there can be a greater value (like homes) for one location Vs. another even if you have the same floor plan.  thanks for the post, Steve
