Despite these higher rates shaping financing strategies, single-family home prices in our region have held steady. Condos, however, have faced more challenges, with less price stability as rising insurance costs, increased reserve requirements, and mandatory balcony repairs have driven HOA fees\u2014and, in some cases, special assessments\u2014higher. These additional ownership expenses have weighed on buyers\u2019 purchasing power, making it especially important to approach condo pricing and negotiations with care and realism.<\/p>\n<p>In this environment, I always encourage clients to look beyond national headlines and focus on what truly matters: your personal goals, neighborhood trends, and the specific inventory you\u2019re considering. My background in business finance and experience in both local and overseas real estate development allow me to approach every transaction with a strategic, well-rounded perspective.
