[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You aren't going to find any condos in NW with low HOAs. Most average right around 1K, some as high at 1700. The lowest I've seen was around $600 but that was for no amenities. DH and I have been watching NW real estate for about 6 months now. You can get a 2 bedroom 2 bath for anywhere from 399K to 475K but the HOAs are going to be insane. [/quote] I'd correct that and say - just UpperNW. I routinely find old buildings in Dupont/Logan/Mt. Pleasant with HOAs anywhere from $500/mo to at most $900/mo and that's for either huge space or brand-new. So what's UpperNW's HOA problem? $499K 2bedroom - $800 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1301-20th-St-NW-20036/unit-111/home/9059929 $550K - $877 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/777-7th-St-NW-20001/unit-926/home/10193250 $594K - $627 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/2001-12th-St-NW-20009/unit-412/home/10183233 $574K - $602 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/811-4th-St-NW-20001/unit-810/home/12532187 $499K - $421 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1613-Harvard-St-NW-20009/unit-114/home/39900467 $570K - $385 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1404-11th-St-NW-20001/unit-102/home/9875730 $390K - $511 HOA https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/1457-Park-Rd-NW-20010/unit-000403/home/11748181[/quote] Insane, and in some of these buildings you dont even have your own washer and dryer. $500 HOA to use an old dirty shared laundry room, probably with your own quarters. Sorry, I just dont see the value. [/quote] Hello - the $1,400/mo HOA that the others are recommending on here is SHARED LAUNDRY too. Now you think $500/mo is too much, how about 3X that? https://www.redfin.com/DC/Washington/3900-Watson-Pl-NW-20016/unit-B-G3C/home/77618846[/quote] You all really need to stop comparing the “HOAs” of condos with those of co-ops.[/quote]
