Don't Sink Your Money
Scrutinize Condo/Townhouse Community

Investors looking to invest money in condominiums or townhouses would be wise to do some research before taking the plunge.
In his book entitled "Make Money With Condominiums and Townhouses," Gary Eldred says would-be landlords should:

Obtain the documents necessary to determine the financial health of the homeowners' association to help owners avoid paying high special assessments if the association lacks the money for repairs or maintenance

Check the association's insurance coverage

Inquire about property defects

Find out if the association is embroiled in any lawsuits

Ask about the number of renters in each development to gauge future property values
