Affordable Condo Living in Walnut Creek: Discover Diablo Hills

If you're looking for affordable condos in Walnut Creek, Diablo Hills might be your ideal spot. Located just outside downtown, this condo complex offers a fantastic balance between location, price, and amenities. Here’s what makes Diablo Hills a top choice for first-time buyers, investors, and those wanting a comfortable home near Walnut Creek’s vibrant center.

Prime Location with Great Value

Diablo Hills is centrally situated in Walnut Creek, right by the golf course and across the street from John Muir Hospital. Although it’s only a few minutes from the bustling downtown area, prices here are a bit lower than condos in the downtown core. This strategic location lets you enjoy quick access to shops, dining, and amenities without the downtown price tag.

Lower HOA Fees

One of the standout features of Diablo Hills is its reasonable HOA fees. With monthly fees in the high $200s to low $300s, residents save significantly compared to other Walnut Creek complexes with higher HOA costs. This makes Diablo Hills not only affordable upfront but also budget-friendly in the long run.

Investor-Friendly Ownership Rules

Unlike some condo communities in Walnut Creek, Diablo Hills has an owner occupancy rate above 50%, making it a safe investment for those considering renting out their property. You can buy a unit, live in it, and later rent it out without worrying about restrictive rental policies. This flexibility is a big draw for investors or homeowners who may want to move and hold onto the property as a rental asset.

Spacious Units with Scenic Views

Diablo Hills has 184 units, offering a mix of one- and two-bedroom condos. Perched on a hill, many units feature balconies with views of the western side of Walnut Creek, providing a peaceful backdrop for residents. Although these units are slightly older and lack some modern amenities like in-unit washers and dryers or central air, they make up for it with charm, value, and space.

Attractive Pricing

As of 2024, one-bedroom units in Diablo Hills are priced around $350,000, making them one of the more affordable options in Walnut Creek. This price point is ideal for first-time homebuyers, investors, and anyone looking to enter the Walnut Creek real estate market without breaking the bank.

Is Diablo Hills Right for You?

Diablo Hills offers a unique blend of location, affordability, and flexibility. With its accessible pricing, investor-friendly rules, and proximity to downtown, it’s a fantastic option for anyone looking to own property in Walnut Creek.
