What we buy here: Complexes near Somerset and Big Beaver and ranch condos serving downsizers from Troy's colonials
Troy has the most valuable condo stock we buy anywhere in Metro Detroit, concentrated near Somerset, along the Big Beaver corridor, and out toward the Birmingham border, alongside ranch condos that serve downsizers leaving Troy's large brick colonials. Even at the top of our range, these units sit roughly a third below Troy's single-family values, which is a useful reminder that a citywide average home price tells you almost nothing about a specific unit. The market here behaves differently from the rest of our service area in one important way: buildings are generally newer, better funded, and more professionally managed, so the warrantability problems that dominate condo sales in Southfield or Warren are less common. When a Troy condo sale runs into trouble, it's more often about timeline, an estate, or a specific building issue than about a systemic problem with the project.
We buy throughout Troy — Somerset area, Big Beaver corridor, Rochester Road area, Long Lake area and Troy Historic Village area and every street in between. If the property is anywhere in Troy or the rest of Oakland County, we'll make a written cash offer on it regardless of condition.

What Drives the Price of a Troy Condo
Troy condo values respond strongly to school district boundaries, proximity to Somerset and the Big Beaver employment corridor, and the quality of the specific development — this is a market where a well-run association with a strong reserve position commands a genuine premium. We look at recent closings in the same complex, dues relative to what they cover, and unit condition. Because Troy has more well-functioning associations than most of the cities we work in, we're often comparing our number directly against what a conventional listing would realistically net, and we'll say so when a listing is the better option.

The typical Troy condo is worth about $324,163 right now, up 2.4% over the past year. The typical Troy house, by comparison, runs about $483,997 — condos here trade about 33% below single-family homes. That gap is mostly monthly dues doing their work: roughly every $300 of association dues removes about $50,000 of what a financed buyer can borrow, so the same household qualifies for meaningfully less condo than house.
For timing context, Troy listings take a median of about 10 days just to reach pending, and 43% of recent sales here closed below the asking price. On top of that, a financed condo sale adds the association review — the status letter, the lender's project questionnaire, and the warrantability check — before the buyer's own 30-to-45-day mortgage clock even starts. Our offer skips that review entirely, which is why a Troy condo that can't hold a financed buyer can still close in a week or two with us.
