In recent years, condos have become very popular. Here are a few common reasons why they are becoming a hot ticket item.
LOCATION In real estate, location is a dominant factor in choosing a home. In many cities a condo unit is the only way to access a preferred neighborhood in proximity to key work areas, especially in downtown core areas where other forms of housing are simply not available or much more expensive.
