CONDOS CATCHING ON:<\/h3>\n

Miami Herald Columnist Explains the Cost Savings, Lifestyle Benefits for Local Buyers<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Buyers who choose condominiums over single-family homes benefit from significant savings on insurance, maintenance and utilities costs and a more vibrant and convenient lifestyle, according to a new Mi<\/a>ami Herald column<\/a>.<\/h4>\n

In the column, Realtor Ralph De Martino explains the various ways condo owners can save on fees when compared with single-family owners. For instance, De Martino cites a report from Acentria Insurance that shows a median-price single-family home built after 2001 in Miami would have an annual insurance cost of $10,064 \u2013 while a median-priced condo policy would only cost $1,411. Additionally, single-family owners often pay monthly fees to cover landscaping and pool maintenance.<\/h4>\n
