Town house and condominium complexes have always been attractive options for people who preferred to have exterior maintenance chores taken care of for them. Perhaps after having gone through excessive clean-up tasks following superstorm Sandy, the condo option may be even more appealing to those looking for a new residence at this time.
This weekend, you can visit two open houses in condominium complexes – a three-bedroom unit in Upper Saddle River and a two-bedroom unit in Mahwah.
This weekend’s search for a home may also include new construction communities, featuring new models and buyer incentives.
Call Realtors to confirm the open houses you are interested in seeing.
