Types of Condos Available in Traverse City

There’s something for every buyer—whether you’re a retiree, investor, or first-time homeowner.

Waterfront Condos on Lake Michigan and Boardman Lake

These offer direct lake access, panoramic views, and premium amenities. Expect top-tier finishes, secure parking, and high HOA fees—but for many, it’s worth every penny.

Affordable Entry-Level Condos

Ideal for young professionals or seasonal residents. These are often just outside downtown or in smaller developments with fewer amenities but solid value.

Buying Process for a Condo in Traverse City

Purchasing a condo in Traverse City is relatively straightforward, but local knowledge and preparation can make a huge difference. Here’s a breakdown of the key steps.

Hiring a Local Real Estate Agent

Local real estate agents bring critical insights into the Traverse City market. They know which buildings have solid HOA reputations, which properties are appreciating, and which are overpriced. Look for agents with strong reviews, local experience, and condo-specific knowledge.

Getting Pre-approved for a Mortgage

Before you start shopping, getting pre-approved sets your budget and boosts your credibility with sellers. Choose a lender familiar with Michigan’s property laws and Traverse City’s condo market. Many waterfront and high-rise condos may also require special financing due to HOA regulations.

HOA Considerations and Condo Fees

Condos come with homeowners associations (HOAs) that handle communal upkeep. Expect to pay monthly dues ranging from $150 to $600+. Review the HOA’s budget, reserve funds, and meeting notes to avoid surprise assessments or poorly managed communities.

• Location: Close to beaches, downtown, trails?

• View: Lakefront, wooded, or cityscape?
