Bros, Condo (house) konetappudu em observe cheyali, agents tho ela deal cheyali, serious replies please...

aa community maintenance agency 

Look for recent selling in that community...to know the price range

Ask for HOA fee 

Look how long properties are in market....this tells you if the community is a better or not 

 

Check for AC/Furnace/ Heater - these are the major investment u may have (5-8K)

Look for appliances....Bargain of you have older stuff

1) association fees or HOA : ask what it includes. It might cover landscaping, snow removal, roof, siding and sometimes they also cover heat and hit water. 

2) ask if there are any assessments. If interior roads are paved, or if new roof is installed, they charge assessmemt just like HOA

3) ask for condo rules. 

4) radon gas mitigation in place or not?

Inka usual things like appliances working or not, heat, AC , any water damage, plumbing issues, etc.,

you can only find out this issues, once you have ur home inspected........its not a common issue for a community, your house might have it and your neighbors might not have it 

btw, even you have radon issue, not all people will try to mitigate it.....but the catch here is, u can ask the owner to pay for it

new construction? if old aitey entha old ? dont go for 1980-90 type houses.

how much is Condo fees? very important idhi... also ask How often does it increase?

Floor is Carpet? if yes, does it need replacement? if yes..bargain in price quoting this reason

Appliances kothava? unaaya asalu ? if no -- bargain in price quoting this reason

Ask - if by any chance your project ends and you have to move-- in such a case can you Rent the apartment? some places dont allow this..clarify this

330 condo fees lo heat and hot water included aa?

if not 330 is too high. dont take it. 

for 15 years(15x 12months x $330) = Almost $60K you will be paying condo fees only. antha kattadam waste. 

this is for 15 yrs only.. imagine what happens for 30yr loan. Snow padey area lo untaava? why tht much high condo fees?

inspection nuvea cheyunchikovali......like 21-point check for used car....u have to talk to inspection companies, based on ur preference and costs 

If you see a house in Zillow....try contact the agent on the ad, if you call your agent instead...ne agent will take cut here 

Instead if you directly contact the ad realtor u can ask for a cut or get a better bargain price

Do you mean seller's agent? seller agent ni contact cheste, oka $5k kosam kakkurhipadithe, they will always look out for seller. better interview 5-10 agents, ask for their recent deals/closings, check market rate of recently dealt properties by them and hire your own agent.
