Houston Condos by HOA Fees and Amenities

Buying or selling a Houston condo can be quite challenging. We're glad to help! With over $1B in real estate sales, Houston Properties is the # 1 Real Estate Team in Houston.

When considering buying a condo in Houston, be aware of the monthly homeowner association (HOA) fees, their actual costs, the benefits of being a resident, and the success themes quality buildings share.

It’s also important to note that HOA fees impact financing, as banks will require unit owners to pay both HOA fees and taxes on time. Banks usually don’t like 3rd party senior liens. Taxing authorities and homeowners associations can place a lien on condo units if bills are not paid.

As such, high HOA fees can become an issue during reselling. Historically, older buildings (from the 1960s to the 1980s) have higher fees, primarily due to several amenities and limited energy efficiency. Some of these buildings also have residents sharing utilities like electricity.

Below, we’ve presented HOA fee trends by building age, Houston neighborhood, and those high-rises that have a pool versus those that don’t:

Houston Condo Appreciation Trends

"Houston Properties Team helped us to sell our condo within a week and closed it within a month. It was really an amazing experience. The entire process was very smooth. They provided the timeline schedule, so we know exactly where we are and what to expect. They are the best professional real estate team we have ever worked with. Excellent teamwork from the beginning to the end!" - Sandra Chao (Google Review)

With over 100 residential buildings from which to choose, buyers should be wary about where to place their investments. Not all Houston condos have performed well over the years.

Some buildings are fantastic, well-managed, have great staff, have solid reserve accounts, and have consistent demand.

By contrast, some condos suffer from high HOA fees (despite limited amenities), inconsistent management, and a spotty appreciation track record.

There are three critical factors to consider when buying a condo in Houston: the building’s resale history, the building’s median sale price, and the building’s unique personality and atmosphere.

It’s also important to take note of the building’s 10-year and 5-year sales performance. It is essential to understand how a particular building performed during a downturn.

Below are five and ten-year median sale price appreciation (or depreciation) rates from many of Houston’s condos:

Houston Condos and Highrises Overview

If you’d like to see any specific condo units or learn about residential buildings that are best for you, please contact Paige Martin at [email protected], ranked #1 Individual Agent with Keller Williams in Houston and #9 in the United States.

Condos vs. Townhomes or Single-Family Homes

One of the most significant differences between Houston condos and Houston townhomes for sale or Houston Single Family Homes is the underlying asset a person will purchase.

When one buys a townhome or a single-family home, that person owns the land (from the center of the earth to infinity above) plus the structure.

When they buy a condo, they’re purchasing airspace and have shared ownership of everyday use areas.

The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) promulgates a separate contract for condos because they are different entities.

It’s important to use a mortgage broker and realtor familiar with condo transactions. The broker will help in navigating the buildings, association rules and restrictions, potential deferred maintenance issues at that location, historical trends in that building, resale potential, unique financing requirements, and the closing process for condos.

Primary Benefits of Living in a Houston Condo:

Primary Drawbacks (compared to Houston townhomes for sale or Houston Single Family Homes):
