55+ Downsize Move ~ Is buying a condo the right choice for you?

Condo living can be an appealing housing option especially for those considering a downsize move. This winter, the thought of ditching your snow shovel is likely top of mind and come summer the idea of watching someone else cut the lawn could be very enticing reasons to consider buying a condo.

Purchasing a condo can be an affordable option when downsizing, and the bonus is, someone else handles much of the maintenance and repairs, such as clearing snow or replacing the roof. Many condos have enhanced security features over those found in single-family homes. Some condos offer a Lifestyle with a wide range of social, entertainment and recreational activities.

“Condominium” refers to a form of legal ownership, as opposed to a style of construction. Many different types, styles and sizes of residential condos with diverse features can be found in almost every price range throughout Hamilton and the Niagara Region. Depending on the community, you may find some or a combination of the following styles of condos for sale:

• high-rise residential buildings

• low-rise residential buildings (fewer than four storeys);

• townhouse or rowhouse complexes;

• stacked townhouses;

• duplexes (one unit over another) or a side-by-side;

• triplexes (stack of three units);

• single-detached houses

Grimsby Condos in an apartment style building by the Lake may suit some while others may prefer a bungalow townhouse in an Adult Lifestyle community in Hamilton.

Whether you are a 55+Homeowner making a downsize move, or a first-time home buyer; there are many things to consider when deciding if a condo fits with your Lifestyle. It doesn’t cost you anything to have a qualified buyers agent by your side.
