You Don’t Need to Buy Your Forever Home. You Need to Buy Your First Home. Now offered at $255,000 with a $5,000 seller credit toward closing costs or an interest-rate buy-down. If you've been wondering whether you can actually afford to own in Walnut Creek, this is an opportunity worth exploring. Welcome to 490 Civic Drive, Unit 101, a first-floor, one-bedroom, one-bath condo in The Keys—offering a low-maintenance path into homeownership in the heart of Walnut Creek. Your first home doesn't have to be your forever home. It just needs to be a smart first step. Instead of putting your monthly housing payment toward someone else's mortgage, homeownership gives you the opportunity to build equity and establish a foothold in a community where owning a home can feel out of reach. And now, the seller is making that first step a little easier with a $5,000 credit that can be used toward eligible closing costs or an interest-rate buy-down, giving you another way to make your purchase work within your budget. Inside, you'll find a move-in-ready home with room to make it your own. The first-floor location adds everyday convenience, while the condo lifestyle means less time and money spent worrying about exterior maintenance. And then there's The Keys. Your home comes with access to a community designed for more than just coming home—multiple swimming pools and spas, a fitness center, clubhouse, tennis courts, BBQ areas, game room, car wash area, guest parking, greenbelts, and beautifully maintained common areas. HOA services include exterior and common-area maintenance, with specific services and inclusions to be verified by buyers through HOA documents. Outside the community, you're minutes from downtown Walnut Creek, with restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, parks, BART, and major commuter routes all close by. You don't have to wait until you can afford the perfect house. You don't have to buy your forever home right now. You just need a place to start. At $255,000 with a $5,000 seller credit, this could be your opportunity to trade renting for owning—and take the first step toward building something of your own in Walnut Creek. Your first home doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to get you started.
