What under $300,000 buys and what to check

In this price band the differences between listings are usually age, size and condition rather than location alone, so read each listing’s year built, square footage and property type (a condo or manufactured home and a single-family home can sit at the same price with very different monthly costs). Budget the full monthly number, not the price: taxes, insurance, and HOA or CDD fees are all on each listing page, and our true cost of ownership calculator puts them into one figure. Insurance quotes on older roofs and older electrical can change which of two similar homes is actually cheaper.

Questions to ask about any listing in this band

How old is the roof, and will insurers write it? Is there a four-point inspection on file? What did the seller pay for insurance last year? In a condo, what are the dues, is there a special assessment or milestone inspection pending, and what do the reserves look like? Is the price a recent reduction, and how long has it been listed? A local agent who works the area will know which communities in this band have the fewest surprises at inspection.
