The increase in condo sales can largely be attributed to investors with cash jumping into the local condo market and buying up the foreclosures that have come on the market.  As a result of the tightening of the financing regulations on condos it has been hard for many buyers to obtain financing for a condominium purchase.  If you are looking for a condominium to purchase, you will want to ask your Realtor to check on which condo projects are FHA approved.
