Just as important as having general knowledge about the various condo complexes is knowing WHERE to look. As your condo concierge, I can personally match you up to the right complexes based upon your criteria and budget. I make it my business to know the inventory and market as well as general complex information. For example, for the many of you interested in single level living or definitely first floor master bedrooms, you have to know where to look. There are some complexes that have a few 'hidden' ranches amidst a sea of multi-level townhouses.
Common charges below do change and are an approximation only to give you an idea. What they cover vary from complex to complex, so it's important to work with an agent who has the experience with the homeowners association coverage like I do (shameless plug).
