Before you buy
- Read the HOA documents: dues, the budget, the reserve study, the master insurance policy and any special assessments or litigation.
- Check the financing rules. Some lenders and loan programs have extra requirements for condos, such as the share of owner-occupied units; ask your lender early.
- Ask about the building: recent repairs, the elevator and roof, parking assignments, and the rental and pet rules.
How we counted
Closed sales of condos (MLS property type “condominium”) with a Santa Clara address between October 28, 2024 and October 27, 2026, reported to the MLS and read through the IDX feeds that power our home search, with repeat records from different feeds removed (normalized address, unit number and sale date). Features are counted when the listing description mentions them, so there are more than these shares show. Past sales aren’t a forecast or the value of any one home.
