Buying a Plymouth MI Condo for Sale - Use you eyes, ears and nose and brain

Use your Eyes! Look carefully when looking at condos for sale at how the exterior of the units are maintained and any deferred maintenance.  Does the roof appear to be in good order or are the shingles curling?  Are the roads in good order or due for a repaving?  Lawn and exterior painting in good order or flaking and overgrown.  These things could be signs of large assessments to come.

Use your Ears!  most Plymouth MI condos for sale are newer built with the new firewall code but this doesn't mean you can't hear your neighbors.  When looking at condos for sale in Plymouth MI go during dinner hours or right before kids bedtimes to get a feel on whether you'll hear some movement from neighbors, or worse, feel like part of the family.  I've lived in condos before and I did say through the walls more than once "listen to your mother! It's my bedtime too!"

Use your Nose!  Condos are typically much much closer together than houses if detached, and attached is right on top of each other.  Condos for sale in Plymouth MI are no different.  Pet smells, smokers and strong cooking smells can be overbearing and cause you to have to close the windows and not let that cool spring and fall breeze through.

Use your Brain!  Last but most important!  Ask for a copy of the by laws and read them, ask for a copy of the condo financial docs and be sure there are reserve funds.  Ask when the last assessment was, if any are coming due, who will pay for those assessed but not due yet, and most importantly get a GOOD Realtor to help figure out and advise (to find a good Realtor first ask how many condos do they sell per year, under 10 = walk away).  The Perna Team has a list of all Condominium Complexes in Plymouth MI and the surrounding cities and we've coded them Green, Yellow, & Red.  Green for good standing and no assessments, plenty of reserves, yellow and red for those that may become more expensive to own or expecting large assessments soon.
