The Hidden HOA Problem Killing Condo Sales

🏢 Your condo is beautiful. It's staged. It's priced correctly. Yet buyers keep walking away.

The problem may not be your unit at all.

In this video, Seattle Realtor Emily Cressey explains one of the biggest issues affecting condo sales in today's Seattle market: HOA financing problems and non-warrantable condos.

You'll learn:

✅ What "non-warrantable condo" actually means
✅ Why conventional financing fails in some buildings
✅ How HOA reserves, litigation, rental ratios, and insurance impact buyers
✅ Why Seattle condo inventory is creating more competition for sellers
✅ What every condo owner should review before listing

Many sellers don't discover these issues until a buyer's lender rejects the building. By then, weeks or months may have been lost.
