San Jose covers 58 ZIP codes. Load any of them below to see the monthly HOA dues reported on homes currently for sale and homes sold in the past year.
Attached homes in San Jose usually carry higher dues than detached ones, because a condo association maintains the building itself: roof, siding, elevators, and the master insurance policy. A detached home's association typically only maintains common areas, so its dues are lower and cover far less.
Dues vary more within a single San Jose ZIP code than most buyers expect. Building age is the usual reason: an older association facing deferred maintenance needs more cash than a new one. Amenities, master insurance, and how much the association keeps in reserve all move the number too.
A low fee is not automatically the better deal. Ask for the association's reserve study, its operating budget, and the last two years of board minutes. Those tell you whether the dues are sustainable or whether a special assessment is coming.
