Often when buyers start looking for White Plains NY condos for sale, they find themselves drawn to older complexes with old-world charm.  Westchester coops comprise the largest share of pre-war buildings and many high-end Westchester coops end up being on the short list of buyers for White Plains NY condos.  The Broadlawn of White Plains is just such a complex.

westchester coops: Larchmont NY Housing Stats: The Cooperative Market - 09/13/11 04:56 PM

Recently I posted two blogs regarding single family Larchmont homes.   One post was focussed on the Larchmont P.O.   and the other on homes in the village of Larchmont.    Sales in both of these markets have been very bullish and positive.  But like so so much that is happening today – this market is full of contradictions.  The cooperative market remains firmly in buyers market territory.
Just a quick note:  These figures are derived from the WPMLS and  consist of cooperatives in the Larchmont P.O. as well as the village of Larchmont.

westchester coops: Pets and the economy – A Plea to Westchester’s Condo and Coop Boards….. - 05/16/11 04:59 PM

It seems as though every single day I hear another story about pets being put into shelters as a result of the sour economy.  These may not even be foreclosures, but may be families forced to scale back from a single family home to a condo or coop.  You guessed it – the condo or coop nixes the pet.  This is particularly hard on our canine friends and I’m getting e-mails and pleas almost daily begging people to spare their beloved pet from the animal shelter.  Most of the time it is to no avail and many of these wonderful … (17 comments)

What can be more frustrating, exciting, rewarding, scary, exhausting, and down right daunting than buying a home?  Try buying one when you have a pet – more  specifically – try buying a condo or coop when your room mate happens to be a dog.  The restrictions and caveats are numerous.  At the very least, they will create bumps in the road – that will severely restrict buying options.  At worst they can be a minefield and a major obstacle to home ownership. The extent to which this impacts a buyers ability to purchase a condo/coop is a varied as the individual … (5 comments)
