Why do condops confuse buyers and agents?

Because the hybrid structure does not fit neatly into the familiar "co-op or condo" framework that most NYC buyers and agents use to categorize properties. Financing guidelines differ, transfer tax treatment can be unexpected, and the board process may not match what buyers assume. Proactive seller education in the listing and during showings prevents this confusion from derailing the transaction.
