Condo sales are rebounding because buyers are finding great deals.
The pandemic turned a lot of people off condos.
Buyers realized just how important having outdoor space and a garage really is.
After a 50% sales plunge this spring, condo sales have recovered.
In October, condo sales increased 22.7% compared to a year earlier on a seasonally adjusted basis.
In my opinion, the best deals going down right now are in condo purchases.
There were 48 property sales in Burbank for November 2019.

While the housing market has come roaring back in the pandemic, iBuying activity hasn't.
Volumes and market share of iBuying activity is likely to finish 2020 at 50% less than that of 2019, according to real estate tech strategist Mike DelPrete, who studies iBuying activity in real estate.
Meanwhile, traditional home sales for existing homes and new homes have been running above last year’s levels.
iBuyers make instant cash offers to sellers who wish to bypass the traditional MLS marketing route, often for assurance of a quicker sale.
However, homeowners tend to pay higher fees for the convenience.
iBuying will be available to buyers for a while, but will buyers and sellers even care?

Late 2019, the owner of 14332 Dickens St #20 was frustrated that he was unable to sell his unit.
He had it on the market at $679,000 for over two months, but his agent could not attract a buyer.
With no hope in sight, the owner decided to pull the unit off the market.
That's when I contacted him!
I showed him what I do differently to sell condos and how my marketing would quickly attract a buyer.
He agreed to let me sell his unit.
Within 11 days I received multiple offers and closed the deal at $702,000 - that's $23,000 over the original list price he had with his original agent.
A big thank you to the owner for trusting me with the sale of their property!
