White Plains & New Rochelle Condo and Co-op Market Update
Whether you're planning your first home purchase or thinking about downsizing, understanding the difference between condos and co-ops—and knowing what’s happening in the local market—can help you make a confident move.
Condo vs. Co-op: Understanding the Difference
Condominiums (Condos)
- Ownership: You own your unit outright and receive a deed—like owning a house.
- Financing: Typically easier to finance with fewer board restrictions.
- Flexibility: Easier to rent or sell with limited board oversight.
Co-operatives (Co-ops)
- Ownership: You own shares in a corporation that owns the building, and receive a proprietary lease to live in your apartment.
- Community: Co-ops tend to have stronger community involvement and may offer lower prices.
- Board Review: Approval is usually required for purchase, renovations, or subletting.
