Condominiums and Townhomes are becoming increasingly popular in the Kansas City area.
The main difference between condos and townhouses is the number of units per building. Townhouses are often larger and may include ownership of a small portion of the land surrounding the unit. Condos are frequently apartments that have been converted. A condo owner typically owns just the inside of the unit; the outside areas are collectively owned by all the other owners in the development.
Homeowners Association Fees (HOA) take care of the exterior maintenance of the property. Some homes associations maintain almost everything such as roofs, exterior painting, and lawns. Other associations may only cover lawn maintenance and snow shoveling of the roads. The monthly fees vary widely and must be carefully considered when purchasing this type of property.
In the Heartland Multiple Listing Service, which serves the greater Kansas City area, Townhomes and Condominiums each have their own category. Various search portals handle these categories in their own unique way, so it can be tricky to search for exactly what you want. This is where The Larson Team can help!
