Yorba Linda Condos and Townhomes
Yorba Linda is not just a market for large single-family homes. The city has a growing inventory of condos and townhomes that offer lower-maintenance living, community amenities, and an entry point into one of North Orange County's most desirable zip codes, all within the award-winning Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District.
Buyers searching for Yorba Linda condos and townhomes will find options ranging from updated units under $500K to premium attached homes near $1 million. Communities like Fairmont Hill, The Villages, The Hills, Rancho Dominguez, and Lakeview Townhomes each bring a different combination of floor plan, amenities, location, and monthly cost.
Communities
Yorba Linda's condo and townhome communities are spread across the city, each with its own fee structure, amenities, floor plans, and rules. Here is a closer look at the communities that attract the most buyer interest.
Fairmont Hill is one of Yorba Linda's most popular condo communities, located in the hills with multiple pools, spas, and greenbelt areas. Units range from one-bedroom flats to three-bedroom townhome-style layouts. Pricing typically falls between $450K and $750K, and the community draws a mix of first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors. The hillside setting provides privacy and a quiet atmosphere that feels removed from the busier parts of the city.
The Villages is a Cape Cod-inspired community of 330 units built in 1985, located near shops, restaurants, and Featherly Regional Park. The community offers spacious living areas, multiple floor plans, and amenities that include a pool, spa, and clubhouse. Prices generally range from $500K to $700K. It is a strong option for buyers who want a well-maintained community with an established HOA and good freeway access.
The Hills is a hillside condo community in Yorba Linda known for its elevated setting and updated units. Rare lower-level end units in The Hills can offer single-story-style living with no stairs, which is appealing to downsizers. Pricing typically ranges from $500K to $700K depending on floor plan, location within the community, and recent upgrades.
Rancho Dominguez is a townhome community near scenic horse trails in a quieter pocket of Yorba Linda. Units offer three bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and over 1,600 sq ft with two-car garages and direct interior access. The community features lush landscaping and a peaceful setting. Pricing typically ranges from $650K to $850K, and it appeals to families and buyers who want more space than a traditional condo.
Lakeview Townhomes is a gated 55+ community located in the heart of Yorba Linda. Ground-floor end units and updated interiors make it a popular choice for retirees and downsizers looking for single-level living in a secure, well-maintained setting. Prices tend to range from $400K to $550K, making it one of the more affordable entry points into Yorba Linda real estate.
Though bordering Placentia, these communities carry Yorba Linda addresses and school assignments. Placentia Lakes features townhome-style units near a community lake and greenbelt, while Villagio offers newer construction with walkable access to Yorba Linda High School. Pricing ranges from $600K to $900K depending on size and updates. Both are popular with families who want attached living in the PYLUSD attendance area.
Pricing
Pricing for Yorba Linda condos and townhomes varies by community, floor plan, condition, and whether the unit includes a garage, direct access, or premium location within the complex. Here is a general breakdown.
Under $600K
One- and two-bedroom condos in communities like Fairmont Hill and Lakeview. These units typically range from 800 to 1,100 sq ft and may include a carport or single-car garage. Ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for an affordable foothold in Yorba Linda.
At this price point, buyers get access to community pools, spas, and the PYLUSD school district at a fraction of the cost of a single-family home in the same area.
$600K to $900K
Two- and three-bedroom townhomes with 1,200 to 1,800 sq ft, attached two-car garages, and updated interiors. Communities like Rancho Dominguez, The Villages, and Villagio fall in this range. Many units at this level offer a floor plan that feels closer to a single-family home, with private patios, multiple levels, and direct garage access.
This is the most active price tier for families and move-up buyers in the Yorba Linda condo market.
$900K and above
Larger end-unit townhomes, newer construction, and premium locations within established communities. Units in Vista del Verde, Palisades, or select Villagio floor plans can reach this range. Buyers at this level get upgraded finishes, open layouts, and amenities that rival many single-family homes.
Some of these properties sit on the boundary between condo and luxury living, with views, high-end kitchens, and community settings that compete directly with detached homes.
Buyer Guidance
Buying a condo or townhome is different from buying a detached home. The HOA plays a larger role in your monthly costs, your maintenance responsibilities, and the rules that govern how you use the property. Reviewing these details early prevents surprises after closing.
Beyond the unit itself, buyers should evaluate the financial health of the HOA, any pending special assessments, the reserve fund balance, and whether the community allows rentals, pets, or modifications. These factors affect your quality of life and your long-term resale value.
Monthly HOA dues in Yorba Linda condo communities typically range from $250 to $500+. Ask for the most recent reserve study and operating budget. A well-funded reserve (60%+ funded) reduces the risk of future special assessments.
Some communities cap the number of rentals allowed at any given time. Others restrict pet breeds, sizes, or the number of pets per unit. If you plan to rent the unit later or have a pet, review the CC&Rs before writing an offer.
Parking varies widely. Some units include attached two-car garages with direct interior access. Others offer a single carport or assigned open space. Guest parking availability also differs by community, which matters if you entertain often.
Condo buyers need an HO-6 (walls-in) policy, and the HOA should carry a master policy for the building exterior. Some older communities may not meet FHA or VA financing requirements, which limits your buyer pool at resale.
Buyer Profiles
The condo and townhome market in Yorba Linda serves a wider range of buyers than most people expect. Here are the profiles we see most often.
01
Yorba Linda condos offer an affordable way to buy into a high-performing school district and a city that holds its value. Buyers who cannot afford a single-family home in the $1M+ range can get started here and build equity over time.
02
Empty nesters who have lived in Yorba Linda for years often want to stay in the community but no longer need 3,000+ sq ft. A well-maintained condo or townhome gives them less upkeep, community amenities, and the ability to free up equity from their previous home.
03
The PYLUSD school district is a primary driver for families moving to Yorba Linda. Townhomes with three bedrooms, garages, and private yards offer family-friendly living at a lower price than a detached home in the same attendance boundaries.
04
Communities like Lakeview Townhomes cater to the 55+ demographic with gated access, single-level floor plans, and a quiet setting. These buyers want security, convenience, and the ability to lock up and travel without worrying about exterior maintenance.
05
Yorba Linda has strong rental demand driven by families who want school district access. Condos in communities that allow rentals can produce steady returns, though buyers should verify rental caps, lease length requirements, and HOA transfer fees before purchasing.
Area Overview
Condo and townhome living in Yorba Linda gives buyers many of the same lifestyle benefits as a single-family homeowner, including access to the school district, trails, parks, dining, and recreation. The difference is that the HOA handles exterior maintenance, landscaping, and shared amenities, giving you more free time and fewer upkeep responsibilities.
Most Yorba Linda condo communities are located within easy reach of shopping at Savi Ranch, dining along Yorba Linda Boulevard, and freeway access via the 91 and 57. Trails, parks, and open space are part of the everyday experience, and the quieter pace of the city comes through even in attached living settings.
Location
North Orange County with access to SR-91, SR-57, and SR-55. Close to Anaheim Hills, Placentia, Brea, and the broader OC market.
Schools
Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District. Most condo communities are zoned for PYLUSD campuses including Yorba Linda High, Travis Ranch Middle, and local elementary schools.
Amenities
Community pools, spas, clubhouses, gated access, and landscaped common areas are standard across most Yorba Linda condo and townhome communities.
Best fit
First-time buyers, downsizers, families who want school district access at a lower price point, retirees, and investors looking at rental demand.
Search Strategy
The condo market moves quickly in Yorba Linda, especially for updated units in well-managed communities. A focused search helps you move with confidence when the right unit becomes available.
Step one
Decide on your priorities: number of bedrooms, garage access, single-level vs. multi-story, and whether community amenities like a pool or clubhouse matter to you.
Step two
Research the community before the unit. HOA financial health, rules, reserves, and monthly fees vary widely. Ask for the budget, reserve study, and CC&Rs for any community you are considering.
Step three
Compare location within the community. End units, units near the pool, and units with greenbelt views carry different values. Interior or upstairs units may price lower, which can be an advantage for budget-focused buyers.
Step four
Get pre-approved and work with an agent who knows the condo market. Some Yorba Linda communities require HOA approval of buyers, and some do not qualify for certain loan types. The Bald Brothers Team can walk you through the details for any community.

For Sellers
Selling a condo requires a targeted approach. Pricing strategy needs to account for recent comparable sales within the same community, not just citywide data. Staging matters more in smaller spaces, and marketing should highlight the specific community amenities, HOA strengths, and location advantages that set your unit apart.
The Bald Brothers Team understands the condo market in Yorba Linda at the community level. We know which floor plans sell fastest, which upgrades matter most to buyers, and how to position your listing to attract the right offers. With over 20 years in North Orange County and $150M+ in total sales, we bring the same attention to a condo listing that we bring to a luxury estate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from buyers exploring the condo and townhome market in Yorba Linda, CA.
Condos in Yorba Linda typically range from around $450K for a one-bedroom unit in a community like Fairmont Hill to over $900K for a premium townhome in a newer development. The median for condos and townhomes generally falls between $600K and $750K, depending on the community, size, and condition.
Popular communities include Fairmont Hill, The Villages of Yorba Linda, The Hills, Rancho Dominguez, Lakeview Townhomes, Placentia Lakes, and Villagio. Each offers a different combination of floor plan, price, HOA amenities, and location. The best choice depends on your budget, lifestyle, and whether you need features like a garage, single-level living, or school district access.
Monthly HOA fees typically range from $250 to $500 or more, depending on the community and what the fee covers. Most HOAs include exterior maintenance, landscaping, trash, water, common area upkeep, and access to shared amenities like pools and clubhouses. Some communities also include insurance for the building structure.
Yes. Lakeview Townhomes is a gated 55+ community in Yorba Linda that offers single-level and townhome-style floor plans with community amenities. It is one of the more affordable options in the city, with pricing typically between $400K and $550K. Other age-restricted or senior-friendly options may be available in nearby communities.
Rental policies vary by community. Some allow rentals with minimal restrictions, while others cap the percentage of units that can be rented at any given time or require minimum lease terms. If you plan to rent your unit now or in the future, review the community's CC&Rs and ask the HOA about current rental caps and any waiting lists before purchasing.
Some do, but not all. FHA and VA loan eligibility depends on the community meeting specific requirements, including HOA financial health, owner-occupancy ratios, and insurance coverage. If you plan to use an FHA or VA loan, verify the community's approval status before beginning your search. Your lender and agent can help confirm eligibility.
