ParticipantI disagree. We didn’t want to spend more than $2500 on rent but I wasn’t finding what I wanted so I used a search up to $3000.
We found a house, met the landlord and they could tell we were decent people who would take care of the place and pay the rent. Our credit scores probably helped too. He only made us sign a 6 month lease and allows us to go month to month because we told him we wanted to buy in the next year.I told him in a 5 minute conversation we didn’t want to spend more than $2500 and he knocked $300 off the monthly rent so we are at $2475. It was painless and the saying is true, “It doesn’t hurt to ask.”

ParticipantHere is a listing from Redfin on a condo
1371 Catail* Homeowners Fees: $230
* Community/Master Home Owner Fees $82
* Monthly Total Fees: $531In a condo situation…you pay an HOA/ and a community master fee/and mello roos. If you add the first two and subtract from the total…I would guess the mello roos is about $200.
I think this is why condos should continue to decline in SEH more than in other communities because $500 a month in fees that aren’t tax deductible should be reflected somewhere which in my opinion is the price.
I think there are deals to be had out there especially at $269,000 and with the great interest rates. You are smart to figure out all the fees before you jump.propertysearchaddiction
