HOA dues on Newark's list
Today's theme is HOA dues. 30 of Newark's 62 buyable houses and townhomes carry them: every townhome and 21 of 53 houses. For the houses that list a monthly figure, the median is $141 a month. Nationally, 44% of homes for sale carry dues, per Realtor.com.
The list slips to 62
Newark's buyable list of houses and townhomes slipped by one to 62 as one active home left the list. No homes joined, none went under contract, and no seller changed an asking price, so the under contract count held at 26.
What dues cost at 7.57%
On Newark's median asking price of $1,298,000 with 20% down, the loan is $1,038,400, inside the $1,249,125 high balance conforming limit for Alameda County, and principal and interest comes to $7,310 a month at 7.57%. A $141 monthly HOA fee costs about $20,000 of borrowing power at that rate.
