Starting Prices for a Move-In Ready Home in Houston
So, you’re ready to buy a home but don’t want to put a lot of time and money into your new house. Before beginning your search, it’s important to ask yourself what “move-in ready” means to you. Are you okay with basic features like Formica countertops, for example, or are you looking for something grander? Knowing this will better inform your search and help your real estate agent locate the best pick for you. If you’re looking for a house in the 610 Loop area of Houston, here’s what you can expect in terms of starting prices for a move-in ready home in Houston.
2-Bedroom Condo
Prices for 2-bedroom condos typically begin at about $195K. However, if you’d like a condo with more modern features like stainless steel fixtures, quartz countertops, or a gated entrance, $250K should be your starting point. Keep in mind that condominiums will also have monthly maintenance fees or association dues ranging from $300 to $600.
2-Bedroom Townhouse
Perhaps the most price-friendly option, a basic 2-bedroom townhouse with acceptable-but-not-extravagant details can cost about $245K. Once you hit the $300K – 320K range, however, the number of amenities increases significantly. Townhouses in this price range might offer stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, more modern kitchens and bathrooms, a study or flex space, and garages.
Freestanding 2-Bedroom House
If you’re not interested in glamorous details like quartz countertops, basic move-in ready freestanding 2-bedroom homes around 1,100 square feet start at about $275K. However, you can find the odd gem for less. Once you get into the $350K range, quality ticks sharply upward. Buyers can find 2-bedroom homes in this price range with open layouts, granite countertops, and wood flooring.
Regardless of your desired home style, it’s reasonable to buy inside the 610 loop starting at around $300,000 or a little less.
