First time buyers searching for affordable condos in Charlotte’s Historic Dilworth neighborhood are faced with a balancing act.  Although there are some wonderful home choices, not many that are for sale – even in today’s economy – are what one might label “within the range” of affordability.  Realtors often hear from clients that living in Dilworth is a top choice, and rightly so!  Urban living in Dilworth ranks right up there by everyone’s measure.  Folks moving to the Queen City from elsewhere quickly discover Dilworth’s charm. Much is written about it, and once a visitor cruises East Boulevard or Dilworth Road – or better yet – leaves the car behind and either walks or bikes the “first planned subdivision” in Charlotte, it is easy to want to be part of it all.
If someone were shopping today for a Dilworth condo, they would find the local MLS lists 137 units for sale, at an average list price of $306,000.  That amount can be out of reach for many first time buyers. However, there are some value-based condos available if one knows where to look!  The accompanying chart shows 17 current active listings in Dilworth priced below $175,000.  These particular condos are among those constructed since 1991, so fit most buyers’ image of a condo in a free-standing complex and not in an old home that has been partitioned into separate quarters.
