Downsizing in Edina
Moving to a smaller home in Minnesota, with a plan that times your sale and your next purchase and never rushes you.
Downsizing in Edina
You can let go of a large house and still stay close to the places you know in Edina. I'm Lesley, a REALTOR® with Bridge Realty.
Where do people downsize in Edina? Many choose condominiums near Centennial Lakes and Southdale, close to shopping and the park. Townhomes and smaller homes in the city's neighborhoods are other options.
Reading a condominium before you buy
- The budget and reserves. These show whether the building can pay for major repairs.
- The dues, and what they include.
- The rules, including pets and rentals.
- Planned projects, which can mean added costs for owners.
