Townhomes for Sale in Columbia, MD

Q: Do Columbia townhome owners pay the Columbia Association annual charge on top of HOA fees?

Homes covered by Columbia Association covenants pay the annual charge, which the Columbia Association sets at 68 cents per $100 of 50% of the property's state-assessed value. It's separate from any neighborhood or condo association fee. Ryan Breeden helps you find both costs for the exact address, because they differ by neighborhood.

Q: Which Columbia villages have the most townhome sales?

In the 12 months before October 2026, Columbia had about 425 townhome sales. Long Reach led with about 46, followed by Owen Brown at about 42 and Harper's Choice at about 27. Hickory Ridge, Kings Contrivance, Oakland Mills and Wilde Lake each had roughly 15 to 23. Ryan Breeden keeps pages for Long Reach and Owen Brown.

Q: Are there new townhomes being built in Columbia?

Not many right now. Columbia is mostly built out, so most townhomes here are resales. A recent Snowden Overlook sale, for example, was built around 2007. For brand-new townhomes, Ryan Breeden tracks nearby builds on his Howard, MD New Construction Homes for Sale page and his Ellicott City, MD New Construction Homes for Sale page.

Q: What's the difference between a townhome and a condo in Columbia?

With a townhome you own the building and the lot under it. With a condo you own the unit and share the building and grounds, and the condo association handles the exterior. In Columbia the labels blur, because some homes that look like townhomes are legally condominiums, and you'll see a unit number in the address. That affects fees, insurance and VA loans, since the association has to be VA approved. Ryan Breeden's Columbia, MD Condos for Sale page shows the condo side.
