About Chicago Condos & Townhomes 

Living in the heart of Chicago means buying a condominium or townhome, and these properties come with a number of advantages. One advantage of condos is that they generally allow you to buy more home for less money. Because condos spread building costs over many residents, they usually sell for 20 to 30 percent less than a comparable detached home with the same amount of livable space. In urban areas, condo and townhomes are often within walking distance to many of the city’s diverse amenities. Condos also offer lower maintenance and more convenience than traditional homes. Repair costs are shared by all residents through homeowners’ association fees. Condos offer amenities such as swimming pools, exercise facilities or 24-hour security that individual homeowners often cannot afford. Townhomes blend traditional detached homes and condominium living. With many of the same benefits of condos, townhomes also allow you to own the actual land your home sits on and afford at least a little green space. Townhomes can be either single or multi-storied, and are attached on one or both sides to other houses. In Chicago, townhomes vary in size and architectural styles that will appeal to every individual.  Click on the buttons above to browse condos and townhomes in the Chicago real estate market.
