Moving away from renting to ownership can be a huge leap if you’re not prepared all the new elements in ownership can be overwhelming and hard to get a hold of; maintenance, documents to keep track of, expenses, condo fees, security, building features like a pool or a gym, parking, utilities, etc. Buying a condo is a huge investment and already has a lot of calculation and thought put in before the initial purchase but afterwards, there are new challenges to deal with too.

Self-Management

Paperwork can be the biggest hurdle to get over, its important to keep track of everything from condition reports, repairs, work orders because clear communication with the property owner is very important and you never know might happen down the line. If a repair was poorly done and only discovered months later, it’s very important to have these documents so you can take action if necessary.

Financials is another hurdle to get a grasp of, there are many monthly expenses on top of your regular payments including to the condominium board in condo fees, reserve fund covering repairs and upgrades to the building, any amenities your building has, your own personal maintenance and upgrades, and more. Things like the age of the building or the size of the condo will change these charges as well. Keeping all of this in order, especially if you have the extra worry about your tenant, can be a major headache.
