Our Contra Costa County market is certainly in a transitional market. In shifting markets it’s important to look at trends and consider recent sales to help determine strategy when pricing and/or offering on homes. HOAs are when a group of homes (Condos & Single-Family Homes) are part of an association that is governed by a board of directors, made up of a homeowners, and a property manager that oversees and coordinates the work needed to be done & the paperwork. How are HOAs considered to be the canary in the coal mine? We discuss the positive benefits of owning a home in an HOA and also consider the reasons people might not want an HOA governing their home. Listen as we offer tips and advice on what to look for when considering an HOA.
